Great idea! That's actually the very next improvement I was planning on making to my coding flow: building a sub agent that is purely designed to study the codebase and create a structured implementation plan. Every large project I work on has the same basic initial steps (study the codebase, discuss the plan with me, etc) so it makes sense to formalize this in an agent I specialize for the purpose.
:-) I feel you. Perhaps I should have ended my post with "Would you like me to construct a good prompt for your planning agent?" to really drive us into the uncanny valley?
(My writing style is very dry and to the point, you may have noticed. I looked at my post and thought, "Huh, I should try and emotionally engage with this poster, we seem like we're having a shared experience." And so I figured, heck, I'll throw in an enthusiastic interjection. When I was in college, my friends told me I had "bonsai emotions" and I suppose that still comes through in my writing style...)
Is it just me, or does every post starting with "Great Idea!" or "Great point!" or "You're so right!" or similar just sound like an LLM is posting?
Or is this a new human linguistic tic that is being caused by prolonged LLM usage?
Or is it just me?
