Does Claude Code's system prompt have special sauces?

  Yes, very much so. I've been able to get Gemini flash to be nearly as good as pro with the CC prompts. 1/10 the price 1/10 the cycle time. I find waiting 30s for the next turn painful now https://github.com/Piebald-AI/claude-code-system-prompts https://github.com/Piebald-AI/claude-code-system-prompts One nice bonus to doing this is that you can remove the guardrail statements that take attention.

    Interesting, what exactly do you need to make this work? There seem to be a lot of prompts and Gemini won't have the exact same tools I guess? What's your setup?

      Yeah, you do want to massage them a bit, and I'm on some older ones before they became so split, but this is definitely the model for subagents and more tools. Most of my custom agent stack is here, built on ADK: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/tree/_next/lib/agent https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/tree/_next/lib/agent
