This is explained in 3.2 How to design good tools?

    This saves the LLM from having to do multiple low level clicking and typing and keeps it on track. Help the poor model out, will ya!?


I'm not sure where this quote is from - it doesn't seem to appear in the linked article.


ahh, sorry, different article :(


putting the review into git notes might have worked better. It's not attached to tje lines directly, but the commit and it can stay as part of the repo


Not at all. Good documentation for humans are working well for models too, but they need so much more details and context to be reliable than humans that it needs a different style of description.

This needs to contain things that you would never write for humans. They also do stupid things which need to be adjusted by these descriptions.


I was thinking about this too, but the problem is that different models need to be prompted differently for better performance.

Claude is the best model for tool calling, you might need to prompt less reliable models differently. Prompt engineering is really hard, a single context for all models will never be the best IMO.

This is why Claude Code is so much better than any other agentic coding tool, because they know the model very well and there is an insane amount of prompt engineering went into it.

I tried GPT-5 with OpenCode thinking that it will be just as good, but it was terrible.

Model-specific prompt engineering makes a huge difference!



Yes, I love github actions for claude code! And use it myself for code reviews.


Context engineering is extremely hard,you won't just "get it" overnight.

The other thing, it's just another code generation tool, treat it accordingly


The original title is "Objects should shut the fuck up". I don't like unnecessary cursing either, but it is emphasizing his frustration in this case and cursing objects, not people.

Renaming the title is just losing information for no reason.


Not sure I would consider a user copy-pasting an URL being a bot.

Should curl be considered a bot too? What's the difference?


> Should curl be considered a bot too? What's the difference?

Perplexity definitely does:

    $ curl -sI https://www.perplexity.ai | head -1
    HTTP/2 403


It gets blocked in my setup because bots use this as a workaround.


This implementation is unnecessary complicated. For the step update, you can use Out Of Band update: https://htmx.org/attributes/hx-swap-oob/ which works in a way that you can send multiple HTML fragments which can be anywhere on the page and HTML swaps them out. Good for notifications, step update, breadcrumb update, menu highlight, etc...

I usually solve the second problem by simply saving the state of the individual input fields, you only need a user session. Depending your use-case, you might need to be transactional, but you can still do this saving everything as "partial" and close the "transaction" (whatever it might mean in the given context) at the last step. Much-much simpler than sending form data over and over.

I did mention using OOB, but I preferred swapping the entire Stepper because the logic on the backend was just a little bit cleaner, and the Stepper didn't include anything else anyways.

I believe this is exactly what I did in the article, no?


Every time I try to open the webpage, it freezes my Chrome and crashing after a couple of seconds. No other website can do that, congrats!

Sure you can trust a company who can't even make a static website work...


Please don't be a jerk on HN. We're trying for the opposite here.

Especially please don't do this in Show HN threads, which have extra rules to forbid this kind of thing: https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html.


same here on firefox. the static content is not the problem all the animations and webgl stuff is making the website crash.


hm, what model are you using? just ran it on my mac and got 100 for performance and 96 for best practices.


I'm experiencing something similar with Firefox. I have a canvas fingerprint-blocker extension that's going haywire and preventing the full page from rendering.

Are you using some form of canvas fingerprinting, either intentionally or unintentionally (through third-party scripts)?
