I've gone back and forth in my usage of LLMs, from full on vibe coding, to plans and execution, to just using the autocomplete in Clion. I've basically stabilized to a few types of usage now for vibe coding, all notably for ideas or disposable code

- prototypes for games, pipe it a love2d template and let it loose. Make sure it wires in a crude imgui style gui so that I can twiddle various numbers.

- wild refactor ideas in a new branch which I never keep. Used for reference basically.

- the main one. Getting it to create disposable tooling. This has been huge for me, and a lot of nice to have tools in the past I can now get an llm to create in a few minutes.
