The more your codebase follows best practices and consistent patterns, the better AI will do and the faster you can move.
Same as humans really, just even faster. I'm also excited that people are finally writing docs and without even any flogging! They're calling the docs "skills" but hey whatever works
- bornfreddy 5mo agoMy main grief with AI-generated docs is that they (unless the instructions were very clear on this) by default describe the path to the current code and how it is an improvement over what was before, instead of just explaining its purpose. I see this all the time when reviewing other people's code... Fortunately it is easy to add a generic instruction to project-wide CLAUDE.md to avoid this problem, but it would be nice if this skill came out of the box.
- KellyCriterion 5mo agoJust put in your config prompt that you want comments explaining why something was done and how it works
- bornfreddy 5mo agoOf course - but I would like others to do it too. :-)
- SirHumphrey 5mo agoI have recently needed to read a skill document because it was more understandable and more through than the official document.
