I remember a few projects before all the AI where I would setup templates, little code generators, patterns to follow. Just make it really easy to do the right things. Was so easy to get things done. Was a small team, like minded, easy to row in the same direction. Your post reminded me of that.

I too notice this about Claude, I've written commands, massaged Claude.md, even hooks. Given it very precise feature guides. I see the same issues you do. Feels like Claude has a lazy lever built in to it.

I play GPT O3 off it constantly, it takes the spec, a repomix slice of the Claude work and gives a new gap.md for Claude to pursue. Rinse and repeat. It works but your cursor flow seems better.

My highest velocity was about 1.6 fib complexity points a day over thirty years, now it's 4.3 with Claude the last three weeks which is nuts. I'm a total hack, I think I could get it up to nine if I was a bit more organized. Probably won't have to, just wait for the next iteration of the Claude models.

Where do you work that you managed to track what I assume are Agile story points over 30 years, also, so accurately?

I don't even remember my median number for a sprint, let alone my daily average over long periods of time.


Yeah, accurately since 2008. Before that was just a guess but it wasn't at all fast. I've worked a lot of places but always insisted on story points based on estimated dev complexity.
