Try using something like Beads with Claude Code. Also don't forget to have a .claude/instructions.md file, you can literally ask Claude to make it for you, this is the file Claude reads every time you make a new prompt. If Claude starts acting "off" you tell it to reread it again. With Beads though, I basically tell Claude to always use it when I pitch anything, and to always test that things build after it thinks its done, and to ask me to confirm before closing a task (They're called beads but Claude figures what I mean).
With Beads the key thing I do though once all that stuff is setup is I give it my ideas, it makes a simple ticket or tickets. Then I both braindump and / or ask it to do market research on each item and the parameters I want to be considered, and then to update the task accordingly. I then review them all. Then I can go "work on these in parallel" and it spins up as many agents as there are tasks, and goes to work. I don't always make it do the work in parallel if its a lot of tasks because Zed has frozen up on me, I read that Claude Code is fine its just the protocol that Zed uses that gets hosed up.
I find that with Beads, because I refine the tickets with Claude, it does way better at tasks this way. It's like if you're hand crafting the "perfect" prompt, but the AI model is writing it, so it will know exactly what you mean because it wrote it in its own verbiage.
