With today's state of LLMs and Agents, it's still not good for all the tasks. It took me couple of weeks before being able to correctly adjust on what I can ask and what I can expect. As a result, I don't use Claude Code for everything and I think I'm able to better pick the right task and the right size of task to give it. These adjustment depends on what you are doing, the complexity of and the maturity of the project at play.

Very often, I have entire tasks that I can't offload to the Agent. I won't say I'm 20x more productive, it's probably more in the range of 15% to 20% (but I can't measure that obviously).
