> I’m not “using a tool that writes code.” I’m in a tight loop: kick off a task, the agent writes code, I check the preview, read the diff, give feedback or merge, kick off the next task

the assumption to this workflow is that claude code can complete tasks with little or no oversight.

If the flow looks like review->accept, review->accept, it is manageable.

In my personal experience, claude needs heavy guidance and multiple rounds of feedback before arriving at a mergeable solution (if it does at all).

Interleaving many long running tasks with multiple rounds of feedback does not scale well unfortunately.

I can only remember so much, and at some point I spend more time trying to understand what has been done so far to give accurate feedback than actually giving feedback for the next iteration.
