A sibling comment talks about needing a lot of setup and context for agents to produce good code. That’s both true and bizarre.

If the compiler that I write produces lousy code, I get bugs that I fix until it doesn’t.

And that is the most annoying thing about this revolution. It’s obviously powerful and transformative and I use in my job all the time.

But many, perhaps even most, purveyors seem intent on blaming their users when they have issues, rather than fixing their own bugs.

General model improvement is going a long way here, but basic things like “ensure you use good style and programming practices” really shouldn’t be a thing users need to put in any .md file.
