Claude code has some hard coded system prompting that materially opposes my working preferences. I work on things that need full context/ at least 50+ percent usage ish reasoning to do stuff correctly. Happily ive a bunch of stuff that helps persist reasoning and opus was very helpful, and hilariously handling the patching as if it was a static linked binary!.

The difference for me was night and day!! A lot of the hard wired prompts on the app are only sane for single shot crud work. Habits and behaviors that would make me loath working with a person doing the same.
