How about I vibe my dick into your asshole? Faggot.

One neat little trick I've learned is before starting any vibe coding, is to ask the LLM to make a detailed and complete structure report of whatever you're trying to build (or modify).

Ask it to put it into a structure.md, this useful for you and the LLM.
Make rectifications and ask it to acknowledge.

After that ask it to research whatever you're working on and create a detailed plan.md.
Ask it to keep referring to the plan and create a TODO list that it will update once it's done.
Make rectifications and ask it to acknowledge.

All the newer models accept this type of workflow and it works best for them.
This allows you to go much faster, get a better understanding, easily correct mistakes and add new instructions without wasting too many tokens.

Also it's good to give them images or screenshots.

It costs me $0.04 to ask something of Claude Sonnet 4.6.

Before I understood this workflow I hit my allotted limit within 4-5 days then had to wait the rest of the month for the reset.

Also another trick is when you want to do smaller things that don't involve coding, just modifying text files or asking things, use a free model on the side so you don't waste Claude tokens.

Make use of AGENTS.md (or CLAUDE.md or whatever it accepts) at the root of the project.

How are you vibing with that? You're manually running tests and builds?

>>108344544
It's just an example of one, I ran that one on a project where it kept trying to run the builds after every single change.

Happens on low tier LLMs like GPT 5 mini or similar.

reposting here because I’m still a noob at making generals and I’m abandoning ship

I’m a big fan of https://typst.app/ — it’s a binary that you can run on your computer
I wanted to make a nice-looking cheat sheet for my QMK-based keyboard because I’ll make good keybinds and then forget them
so I told Claude Code to make a nice-looking one based off my Ergodox EZ .c file
and it did
and now I can just look and see where my play/pause key is

>>108344552
I'm also using Claude quite a lot to help with my QMK keyboard, I used it for raw Hid stuff for instance.

>>108344566
That sounds interesting but I have no idea what you could be doing with it
All I know about is
- space-cadet keypresses where tapping left shift will give you a ( and tapping right shift will give you a )
- pressing a button that will type out a string of letters as opposed to generating one keypress
what else is there?

Is anyone here getting any use out of optional typing in languages with it, like Python and TypeScript? Have you gotten improvements in reliability by adding (or removing) type information from your programs?

With Qmk in general or raw Hid in particular? Qmk has a lot, combos, layers, tap dances etc.
Raw Hid you can do stuff like send your current layer to your PC and render it as a widget. Or you can send the currently active OS or the currently active program to your keyboard and automaticaly switch layers on the keyboard. I also use it to send ctrl shift v when a terminal is active and just ctrl v for all other programs. Some of this you can also do in other ways on some systems, but with wayland sending keypresses to an arbitrary app is usually not possible so I do it directly from the keyboard.

>>108344612
Ooh, that _is_ neat.

>>108344528
Also good to tell it to use bash/zsh/powershell depending on your system so you avoid it getting stuck and waiting for your command.
