Yeah I let the LLM look at the code and ask it to implement some change.
It works pretty well with Claude Code. Much better than cursor, which is a step up from copilot. Even with the same models, and I'm not sure why. I haven't really tweaked much around the AI tools, since I don't really know much about how they work.
I've just found that Claude Code somehow... just works. Out of the box, no MCPs, no fancy configs. I just straight up tell it what I want, and most of the time it gets it right or close enough to right that a second instruction is all I need.
Would I recode what I wrote? Maybe not from the ground up, since I already had a pretty good framework. But LLM has managed to make some pretty fiddly changes to my codebase recently. It would have taken me a long time, mostly in tedious edits.
