The difficulty is we skeptics have read claims like yours tens of times, and our response is always, "please share a repo built this way and an example of your prompts," and I at least have never seen anyone do so.

I'd love for what you say to be possible. Comments like yours often cause me to take another crack at agentic workflows. I'm disappointed every time.

I can back that claim up. Unfortunately, I've only worked on proprietary codebases and I can't share them. However before I left my previous gig at PermitFlow I was primarily using Claude Code for all of my work.

I don't view LLMs as ways of foregoing the responsibility of writing code and rather see it as my "really smart keyboard". With enough context priming and a well structured codebase I no longer need to spend time writing each line of code and can have Claude do it in a fraction of the time.

I need to start a blog sooner rather than later as I don't agree with the article nor the naysayers. Maybe a year ago I'd say that it's not possible to code with LLM agents. However ever since Cursor's release, LLMs have completely changed my workflow.

If you do wrote that blog, I'd love to read it! My email is in my bio if you get time to start it.

Most AI evangelist commenters here end up with the same arguments every time.

You are just not a true scotsman.

And when they link something is one of those repos full of sloop and no code.

I am becoming paranoid and wonder how many people here can even code.

It is a bit funny that 4 hours on and still no replies from the evangelists.

I want them to be right and me wrong! Please someone show I am wrong.

The number of projects shared is more ot less tye number of bussines that accept Ethereum
