You are doing it wrong. Have Claude generate the test code and log test data that it can feed back into itself. Claude can generate tests and verify the code better than humans now. I don't trust humans to get things right anymore -- I have a PhD and Claude knows all the math and libraries better than me.

I didn’t write any of it. I occasionally get assigned PRs written (or not, in this case) by other devs.

It certainly didn’t do that in this case.

If it knows all the libraries so well, why did it add a bespoke implementation?
