one shotting/"context engineering" larger apps or bigger code changes with claude code gives me fragile results. common issues: - too much code gets generated. flows might work, but the code is slop. - many UI/UX bugs. every iterative fix dirties the code further. - claude invents new features/abstractions that I never asked for what's working better for me is acting as the architect. I break down the task myself into what would usually be 15-30 minute sessions if I were to write the code manually. - I ask claude to implement each increment - I test it and give feedback to claude - I then review the code and ask for any necessary refactors - git commit -m "checkpoint" - rinse and repeat this places me in the role of PM/tech lead on a team. results in better UX and more resilient code.
