Thanks! Very valuable insights.

I have been through Karpathy's work - however, I don't find that it helps with large scale development.

Your tactics work successfully for me at smalle scale (at around 10klocs, etc) and starts to break down - especially when refactorings are involved.

Refactoring happens when I see that the LLM is stumbling over it's own decisions _and_ when I get a new idea. So the ability to refactor is a hard requirement.

Alternatively refactoring could be achieved by starting over? But I do have a hard time accepting that idea for projects > 100klocs.
