yeah same here, the worst it can do is get in some weird loops to resolve an issue which can normally be resolved by better prompting or pointing it in the correct direction. But it is pretty good with file handling and usage of temp folder. I usually let it do auto but ask it not to implement anything before having a discussion with me so it generally does stuff in scratchpads in temp. One thing annoying about Claude is though when you open the session in a folder to work on a small script it generally goes as “ok let me read everything recursively staring from four parents up to get the context.” Probably can be handled with better config files but I just generally handle couple of initial request manually and then once it is in analysis mode I let it go auto
