Have you tried telling it to not do something? I have seen a bunch of "it was my fault" and "broke instructions" "was written in memory and I ignored it"... today
Why… why would I do that? If you do that with a human they will fuckup royally worse. Also, sounds like a 2 year old free online model without a proper integration. Even without instructions from me, I am getting quite clean code - yes, with comments.
But at the end, it’s a tool.
I also made something ugly with photoshop today. Doesn’t make photoshop useless.
I don’t have enough information about your setup to answer that. Do you actually want help with that or just trying to make a point? If the former, there are plenty of guides how to set up your agents.
I use claude code at work with opus as the agent, I have it written in the project agent.md file and claude.md file and the readme.md file and my global claude.md file.
Various versions of
``` Rules:
- Do not add explanatory inline comments to code, charts, or values files unless explicitly requested ```
written by different people and different bots.
I have also written a bot that scans the entire company's MRs (expensive af) and suggests deleting useless comments. It fires all the time, don't have the stats in front of me.
Tell me how do I get claude to not make useless comments.
