alt Hacker Newsmy experience as well. claude produces functional but over-engineered scripts fairly frequently with often very questionably useful safety checks, especially for powershell.
a common tell of ai generated powershell is a script that has dedicated functions to check types, often via several methods, and happily prints the output of the checks to shell. i do not get why it does this but it often adds dozens of lines that really serve no purpose but to make the shell output look fancy
It's frustrating when I catch it doing this because it's wasting tokens and time on what it reports as "one-off" scripts. Might add a requirement to never use shell scripting unless the task is truly a one liner.
