That's very much expected. That's why the quality of LLM coding agents is like it is. (No offense.)

The "asking LLMs for advice" part is where the circular aspect starts to come into the picture. Not worse than looking at StackOverflow though which then links to other people who in turn turned to StackOverflow for advice.
