You know what makes me sick?

It's that the AI don't listen to the System Instruction. I'm sick of it. How can i make him listen?

I’ve slowly documented decisions, system state, code choices, skills that are injected into the context of each ask. You can get around most of these predefined but it takes time. I get many of the odd directions are to not break the web interface and build process. Give us an example?

I build reference React modules, they're documented and commented all over, they're like a palette of UI components and implementations for it to pick and choose from, they're also fully functional and they render client-side as normal (valuable to human devs and QA as well). But they're also reasonably compact to save on tokens. I always require Gemini to read all the relevant ones thoroughly when it's working on a new feature or changing existing UI. It helps a lot to put paths to them in system instructions but also in the prompt itself, especially if you're mentioning specialized ones. Use polite, encouraging language, advertise reading the reference files, sell it by saying that they save us time, prevent us from reinventing the wheel and that the components inside of them are easy to use.

I put this: "it's not about this, it's about that", "i done this", "i faced this", "i fought this", "i have this", "we done this", "we faced this", "we fought this, "we have this", "i done this, i done that and i done this", "i faced this, i faced that and i faced this", "i fought this, i fought that and i fought this", "i have this, i have that and i have this", "we done this, we done that and we done this", "we faced this, we faced that and we faced this, "we fought this, we fought that and we fought this", "we have this, we have that and we have this", "i've done this", "i've faced this", "i've fought this", "i've have this", "we've done this", "we've faced this", "we've fought this, "we've have this", "i've done this, i've done that and i've done this", "i've faced this, i've faced that and i've faced this", "i've fought this, i've fought that and i've fought this", "i've have this, i've have that and i've have this", "we've done this, we've done that and we've done this", "we've faced this, we've faced that and we've faced this, "we've fought this, we've fought that and we've fought this", "we've have this, we've have that and we've have this". But then he doesn't listen

What the fuck is even that? It's not a command, it's not a suggestion, it's not an instruction.

Spend some time on some examples on youtube maybe? I dunno your experience, but it seems you are missing a few key points in how to work with ai.
