I find it's a huge boost for my day-to-day work.

If you work on architecture and Claude docs, then you can essentially just have it fill in the gaps. Work then mostly becomes a matter of defining what the next piece of functionality is (which you can also use Claude to help with).

The stuff that used to take days now takes hours. It's not perfect, but if you get your codebase into a good shape then the payoff is huge.

I re-read something I did 6 months ago doing this.

It's so obviously AI and had much less value than I thought now I look at it with fresh eyes.

Worse it doesn't read like I wrote it, I don't recognize myself in the doc.
