I havent tried claude code before, im not a paying customer. >Gemini rarely gets the hint when I express annoyance with its output. Ive noticed this, but you close out gemini, immediately go back in and suddenly it works great. >- Gemini once kept using an old version of a file I had updated by hand, despite me asking it several times to re-read the file. It also sometimes proposes empty changes. Ive had this happen several times now. Kept reverting my changes. Close out gemini, reopen fixes. >Gemini's format for proposing changes in the terminal is such that you often can't make you out what's actually changing For python i havent experienced this. it gives me it well every time. >Gemini's permission systems is not as usable as Claude Code's. I never trusted it with any permission. Im not sure id do any different with claude. >Claude can be started with an initial prompt and still retain interactive mode. This option is useful for priming the session with instructions in a more direct way that CLAUDE.md. As far I can tell, Gemini can't anything similar. No, i havent seen anythinglike this. Im not sure what you mean. >I guess the thing going for it is that it has a free tier of use, and the core intelligence is probably about on par with Claude. But it's slow too. Free for the win. Main reason I havent tried claude code. Even the claude pro, their limits are 45 queries per 5 hours? Like wow ill blow through that in minutes.

I just want to point out that restarting the session is not a good workaround considering how much context the current session could have (and storing the current state+recovering optimally in a new session (compacting) is not that easy, I consider it an open problem with Claude too).

> I never trusted it with any permission. Im not sure id do any different with claude. Certain permissions can be safe and speed up your work significantly. For example, you can allow Claude Code to run ls, grep, find, etc without stopping to seek your permission each time. You can also allow it to autonomously run specific custom commands like tsc, build, and test. You control what is in these commands, to they can be as safe as you want them to be. > No, i havent seen anythinglike this. Im not sure what you mean. I mean something like this: claude "Please carefully read the CLAUDE.md and README.md files" I notice that all agents easily forget what is in the main instruction file, so I use this as an alias to start Claude with a suitable priming instruction
