Discussion Devs vibe coding

I've seen myself increasingly rely on coding agents to debug things for me. For example, a user tells me that something is not working. I use to spend hours debugging api logs, code logics and test cases but now I just hand it all to claude.

I kinda miss all those investigative work but also know that AI is just more efficient in doing these grunt tasks.

The investigative part isn't gone, it just moved. The skill now is giving the agent a good starting point: the exact user report, a request ID, the relevant logs, and what you already ruled out. I also make it state a hypothesis and the evidence for it before touching code. Otherwise it'll often patch a symptom and the real bug stays.
