Most features I do are not that complex. For the complex ones I’m already feeding designs to the agent via interfaces and specific instructions.

I think people here are thinking I’m building Gmail from scratch when I’m talking about adding additional database APIs and models in the style of stuff I’ve already done twenty times in the same application. That’s easy for even the dumbest LLM and verification is not more than a code review, maybe an hour or two of labor. It’s never perfect, but as stated elsewhere I know how to program this stuff already so I can just fix it on the spot before I commit it.

I understand though, some of you either can’t use agents to code because of one reason or another, or refuse to; both are valid. I’m saying that for my job programming in a specific industry for a specific application in a specific language that AI agents actually help me out more than hinder me, and I still ship quality code in the style that matches the code base.
