[claimed common problem exists, try X to find it] -> [Q about how to best do that] -> "the best way to do it is to do it yourself"

Surely people have found patterns that work reasonably well, and it's not "everyone is completely on their own"? I get that the scene is changing fast, but that's ridiculous.

There's so much superstition and outdated information out there that "try it yourself" really is good advice.

You can do that in conjunction with trying things other people report, but you'll learn more quickly from your own experiments. It's not like prompting a coding agent is expensive or time consuming, for the most part.

/security-review really is pretty good.

But your codebase is unique. Slop in one codebase is very dangerous in another.
