I guess it depends on what you mean by coding ability. I used to think one of my super powers was being a faster than average typist who was familiar with vim. Compared to those in my immediate vicinity I could edit files much faster. That ability has rapidly lost value. But the ability to read and understand unfamiliar code quickly is still "coding ability" in my book and that has not yet begun to lose value. I haven't seen much success in getting agents to help with that.

I was looking more at ability to write efficient and production ready code. My last gig was a Unix Admin, love me some vim! I've had some decent luck with asking Claude to review this file and tell me what it does. I look at it as more of a starting place than fact though as it tends to get things jumbled.
