Claude can one shot tasks until you get a larger system then it completely shits itself. These models are nothing more than autocomplete, and they can’t hold large systems in their heads. Anthropic literally tried to rewrite all of bun using Claude, they said they did it and yet it still hasn’t released six months later.

This has gotten a lot better for me by having a “send out scouts” skill that has a lower tier model agent search through the codebase before it starts to plan. Has handled my companies giant monolith pretty well and even can handle cross repo features as well.
Yeah I certainly wouldn’t advocate building a whole business around code it wrote. But for small personal tasks it hasn’t let me down. Building custom server applications, desktop applications, Firefox add-ons, upgrading my homeassistant 10 versions over a couple weeks without letting anything break. These sort of things it handles pretty easily and are all things I wouldnt get done without it.

Claude code has been using the new rust bun for ~5 months now and has been working fine, and bun 1.4 that released in August is using the rust rewrite
