Have you tried showing it a copy of your coding standards?

I also find pointing it to an existing folder full of code that conforms to certain standards can work really well.

Yeah let's share all your IP for the vague promise that it will somehow work ;)

  • You just gave me a revelation as to why some people report being unable to get decent results out of coding agents!

  • (Shrug) If you're not willing to make that tradeoff, you'll be outcompeted by people who are. Your call.
