I am aware of the "your LLM is terrible now" trope, and have called it out many times myself. It's an interesting phenomenon.

However, I posted this link for selfish reasons. I wanted to see if this experienced dev team's complaints rang true to other Claude Code users as well. I have been considering CC, but thought maybe I had missed the initial good times.

Is this not at all your experience with CC?

I believe, one way or another, that the poster of that article is correctly evaluating the performance of CC now. Whether it was better before or whether he was looking at it with rose tinted glasses now is beside the point.

What's really missing in this ecosystem is someone who runs the same problems against the same codebase repeatedly, and publishes weekly results on all LLM-based coding tools.

It seems like Playwright now allows you to control an Electron app, like a VSCode fork. The CLI tools like Claude Code are easy to include in automated testing.
