Hacker News Reader

I believe it's important to say when AI was used so heavily in building a library -- it would feel dishonest to me to claim I wrote it all myself. I also think it's just a pretty interesting thing to know about. So I think it belongs in the readme. (But I'm not making a moral judgment on what anyone else does.)

It was almost entirely Claude Sonnet 3.7. I agree I should add the version to the readme.

That's interesting. My experience with Sonnet 3.7 early this year was pretty poor: It simply couldn't reach the correct solution alone, even when explaining the issues explicitly. The proposed invalid solution was not too far from the correct one, so you could fix it manually if you knew what you were doing, but then the way the code was structured was not something that I would like to maintain in a real project. All this on top of the usual UX issues like hallucinated APIs. The experience refactoring was even worse.

I guess your mileage is highly dependent on the domain of your problem? In my case was GIS by the way
