Finally someone said it, they're overconfident in their approach, don't consult us with the details of the implementation, they're trained to create mock APIs that don't follow structure, leading to lot of rework. The LLM actions should be measured, collaborative, ask for details when it's not present. It is impossible to give every single detail in the initial prompt, and a follow up prompt derails the train thought and design of the application. I don't know if I'm using it right, I'd love to know more if that's the case. In a way the LLM should improve on being iterative, take feedback, maybe it's a hard problem to add/update the context. I don't know about that either, but love to learn more. |

One workflow that works well for me, even with small local models, is to start a plan session with something like: "based on @file, and @docs and @examples, I'd like to _ in @path with the following requirements @module_requirements.md. Let's talk through this and make sure we have all the info before starting to code it."
Then go back and forth, make sure everything is mentioned, and when satisfied either put it into a .md file (so you can retry the coding flow later) or just say "ok do it", and go grab a cup of coffee or something.
You can also make this into a workflow with .rules files or .md files, have a snippets thing from your IDE drop this whenever you start a new task, and so on. The idea with all the advancements in LLMs is that they need lots of context if you want them to be anything other than what they were trained on. And you need to try different flows and see what works on your specific codebase. Something that works for projectA might not work for projectB ootb.
