Garbage in garbage out as they say. I will be the first to admit that Claude enables me to do certain things that I simply could not do before without investing a significant amount of time and energy.
At the same time, the amount of anti-patterns the LLM generates is higher than I am able to manage. No Claude.md and Skills.md have not fixed the issue.
Building a production grade system using Claude has been a fools errand for me. Whatever time/energy i save by not writing code - I end up paying back when I read code that I did not write and fixing anti-patterns left and right.
I rationalized by a bit - deflecting by saying this is AI's code not mine. But no - this is my code and it's bad.

This is starting to drive me insane. I was working on a Rust cli that depends on docker and Opus decided to just… keep the cli going with a warning “Docker is not installed” before jumping into a pile of garbage code that looks like it was written by a lobotomized kangaroo because it tries to use an Option<Docker> everywhere instead of making sure its installed and quitting with an error if it isn’t.
What do I even write in a CLAUDE.md file? The behavior is so stupid I don’t even know how to prompt against it.
