Same here. I broke down the work to build a mobile app into architecture patterns.

Each work segment was implementing this.

CC still fucks up on basic shit (I believe that sometimes it just refuses to read the CLAUDE.md which is fucking annoying) but I can usually get it back on track.

It's amazing isn't it? Claude Code will do amazing things, but stumble on the easiest things. "Change this border radius 2px" ... "Okay, heres a brand new custom component"

You’re not wrong. However, it is possible I could have wasted time doing something, inevitably. At least Claude Code closes that gap significantly which is ultimately a huge net positive for me. Even if it makes silly mistakes. I ask it to ensure it has read my CLAUDE.md and understood the project structure as the first prompt when I do a task. Almost never fails anymore. I also have a 950 line CLAUDE.md that describes the system architecture and maybe put like 4 hours of work into that prompt.

Maybe I’m not elite human capital you might say. I’m sure you’ve written perfect code and have a 100% sales rate. Kidding but I’m sure you get it.

At worst I get some time foe personal life. At best I will save a ton of time.
