ask claude code to start new claude sessions while refining the output style. until it looks right. my claude code now writes well.

Thing is, you already have limited space for context. A CLAUDE.MD larger than about 150 lines will exceed it. That is not a lot of space to describe, for example, a complex code base, development conventions, and all the other important stuff.
Interesting.
I guess I could take some lengthy example explanation, and have it try various instructions and test what results in output that I find preferable.
Maybe I'll give that a try, thanks!
This comment reminds me that one of the features of technological revolutions is just the sheer number of people who are on the bleeding edge of use.
On that topic, I'm having a lot of fun here.
Where in the past automation often meant spending more time to author scripts than they would end up saving, now we can just tell our computers what to do.
Finding good workflows is still a challenge.
The internet is full of prompts, skills, etc. where it is hardly clear if they result in behavior that is preferable to the default.
I also find it interesting to distill findings and preferences from your current task into reusable skills or instructions so that the next task's output is already more to your liking with the first attempt.
Between model and harness improvements, my own learning, and the improvements to my setup, it's exciting to see significant progress over time.
Before AI, with 10 years on the job, things were a bit boring unless I switched to another stack where I could learn new things.
