Interesting. I occasionally feel that way with Claude as the backend. Still the best backend that’s reliable, although o3-mini-high in architecture mode with Claude is very good.

I find Claude wants to edit files that I don’t like to be edited often. Two ways I deal with that - first, you can import ‘read only’ files, which is super helpful for focusing. Second, you can use a chat mode first to talk over plans, and when you’re happy say “go”.

I think the thing to do is try and use it at a fairly high level, then drop down and critique. Essentially use it as a team of impressive motivation and mid quality.
