What I’m curious about is how well LLMs do when they create something from scratch, because so far my experience was with letting it fix issues or add features to existing codebase where I already shaped the general architecture and put in a lot of guardrails. But what if the architecture is unclear and there is nothing letting agent know if change breaks something or not? My only experience with tiny codebase where it did a lot of scaffolding was poor - it did what I asked for, not what I needed. If i did more of the thinking myself I would realise it’s a code that works but doesn’t solve the problem I’m after.
