In regards to the duplication of code — yes I’ve found this to be a tremendous problem.

One technique which appears to combat this is to do “red team / blue team Claude”

Red team Claude is hypercritical, and tries to find weaknesses in the code. Blue team Claude is your partner, who you collaborate with to setup PRs.

While this has definitely been helpful for me finding “issues” that blue team Claude will lie to you about — hallucinations are still a bit of an issue. I mostly put red team Claude into ultrathink + task mode to improve the veracity of its critiques.
