We started using LLMs heavily at work this year and I switched from Vim to Zed to help with that. I now spend more time writing to the chat than editing code, and what I quickly learned to avoid frustration when I don't like the result was to git stash or reset the code and edit what I last wrote instead of trying to argue with the LLM. The chat doesn't have to be linear, it can branch off. Too bad we can't currently edit previous messages with Claude in Zed.

Repetitive issues are fixed by updating the memory or the prompt file, they can learn this way.

Also lately I noticed that Claude forget too much when compacting, so I just start a new session and it's easy when you spend a lot of time in plan mode to produce a written spec before implementation.
