Youre right and there are some assumptions being made here around the agent having enough context to work on a task without interrupts (e.g. team review, asking questions, etc). Typically human equiva…

For folks interested in some of the nuances of this benchmark, I just posted this deep dive: https://blog.sshh.io/p/understanding-ai-benchmarks …

IMO MCP isn't totally dead, but its role has shrunk. Quoting from my post [1]: "Instead of a bloated API, an MCP should be a simple, secure gateway... MCP’s job isn’t to abstract reality for…

All markdown files, yeah
comment
We have a linter that checks for this to help mitigate
comment
Yeah I'm fairy pessimistic about how much folks will read
comment
Hooks can also be useful for this. If it's using the wrong APIs then can hint on write or block on commit with some lint function that checks for this.
comment
Yeah I started with Cursor, went hybrid, and then in the last month or so I've totally swapped over. Part of it is the snappy more minimal UX but also just pure efficacy seems consistently better…
comment
Yeah if that's possible or you are willing to build it, that's the right solution. Today pretty much all of my integrations are pure CLIs like that rather than MCPs. You can do anything you …
comment
Often code in SaaS companies like ours is indeed how we solve customer problems. It's not so much the amount of code but the rate (code per time) we can effectively use to solve problems/bui…
comment
Makes sense. I work for a growth stage startup and most of these apply to our internal mono repo so hard to share specifics. We use this for both new and legacy code each with their own unique AI codi…
comment
I've found planning to be key here for scaling to arbitrary complex changes. It's much easier to review larger changes when you've aligned on a Claude generated plan up front.
comment
It's a balance and we use both. Skills doesn't totally deprecate documenting things in CLAUDE.md but agree that a lot of these can be defined as skills instead. Skill frontmatter also still …

Maybe these might be handy:

comment
Yeah I like to think not everyone can spend their day exploring/tinkering with all these features so it's handy to just snapshot what exists and what works/doesn't.
comment
Thanks! I def don't think I would have guessed this use case when MCP first came out, but more and more it seems Claude just yearns for scripting on data rather than a bunch of "tools".…
comment
Yeah that's probably a slightly cleaner way of doing it.
comment
I'm surprised we haven't seen more "real" attacks from these sorts of things, maybe it's just bc not very many people are actually running these types of MCPs (fortunately) in…
