👍 After a year of AI-assisted building, the interesting question isn't if the model can write the code. It's whether you've built the conditions where something good can emerge. Project Ansible taught me that the right constraints aren't a cage. They're what makes you brave enough to experiment.
Working with Claude Code doesn't feel like programming. It feels like sketching. Fluid. Creative. Playful. I'm molding clay, not writing code. 📡 Project Ansible (AI summaries for Readwise) is my most ambitious build yet, and it felt like painting.
After more than a year of experimenting with AI assisted coding 💪 the interesting part for me is no longer “can the model do this?” but “what’s the structure and process that actually makes this work?” This project template is where I have ended up, and that now kick starts my projects.
Seven or eight real apps built with Claude Code, zero “actual” coding from me. A new white paper just described my workflow so precisely it felt like reading my own brain - so here’s how I actually do it.
Just grokked: CLAUDE.md files are sent with EVERY request. My rich 700+ line memory for 'do this task' seemed suddenly wasteful. Refactored to act as library index. 📉 Result: 730 → 442 lines (67% reduction). 30 min discussion, 2 min execution.
