alt Hacker News> Its use of "dense jargon" and "stilted metaphor" is actually surprisingly consistent - it's speaking its own dialect, and you get used to it.
This dialect is idiosyncratic to you and Claude based on your session history and memory.
I've noticed Claude's output mimics my writing style.

Right down to my preferred spellings.
As several comments I've read on HN suggest, this jargon which can be so precise in the mind of one person, tends to rapidly fall apart when multiple people try handling it.

I concur. It even follows some idiosyncratic punctuation if you have it.-
that is not my experience at all; I never write the way Claude does or use its vocabulary.
I also find myself regularly editing its code comments, which do not match my expectations of succinct, clear, not over explained, etc. I ask it to read my edited comments to improve its writing, which has helped _somewhat_. (The code itself that it writes is decent, though it still overcomplicates things. I find myself writing "keep it simple" repeatedly even though of course I have it in AGENTS (which it regularly ignores, such as attempting to commit something when I've told it never to commit).
You're just lucky that your preferred spelling happens to align with Claude's. It is categorically impossible to get any Anthropic model to consistently use American spelling in the last few releases.
