This is a really interesting setup.

When you say "switched to Claude Code entirely" do you still make manual edits in a text editor is CC doing 100% of the coding?

Also, you mentioned getting good at prompting - is there anything you do that's not already well documented?

I stopped using Cursor entirely with 6 paid for months left on my subscription.

You’re right to questions the originality of the code though. I can’t answer to that. I specify at a high level.

In fact I don’t even do that, the spec is created from a chat discussion about what I’m trying to achieve. Opus in planning mode creates documents like this based on our conversation.

But I’m not building CRUD all day long. I’m building things i couldn’t find.

If we were creating truly new algorithms we should be writing papers and books.

I think I am doing new work. I don’t think it can just be vibed into existence. I do have to tell it what approaches to take. Like “memoize those results” or try X and measure it.
