Not to mention, the code is quite obviously vibeslop...
Why are they building CLIs and tooling in this way? Don't they realize that shipping low quality code will eventually hurt them more than whatever UX benefits it gives developers? People will give up on using this quicker than the attention you get from launching it.
Just one example that shows how little they care, since the commit message is obviously written by an agent/LLM, the code surely is as well: https://github.com/microsoft/winappCli/commit/3dead8ed147917...
I think when people heard that Claude Code is now writing itself, they thought "we could do that" and this is their attempt at it. Different people, different results.
I made a small suggeestion in VS Code's Github repo.. it got assigned to a GH Copilot bot, that did the implementation, manually added a couple weeks later and now in release... I was a bit impressed, but then started looking at some of the configs and workflows for .githug, it's impressive but I can't help but think, what a pain to setup/configure.

They should have inspected the code of Claude Code first, and then make a judgement, because these agents are not ready to just write themselves without proper engineering-oversight. I'm guessing the technical debt and bug count will keep increasing until they realize this.
