Save your "you're holding it wrong" if you're not going to suggest how to hold it.
Cult speak escape hatches are intellectually lazy.

I’ve had the best luck by spending quite a bit of time going over the big picture architecture up front and then diving into the modules to further refine the details, making sure to generate step-by-step chunks of work in Markdown format for implementation. I’ll spend literally a couple of days doing this before starting any coding.
Edit: My latest project is all GPT-6 Astra High. It takes a lot of steering to keep it from adding a bunch of, while useful, features that are not strictly enough to the point. That main issue is it’ll use a lot of extra tokens in the process!
What was your process?
Sure, happy to provide you with an example of how to hold it (turns out Steve was right) =D
https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent is 99% (just a guess) LLM generated. 1140 closed pull requests this week. 1.5k closed issues. The github insights page for commits doesn't load for me presumably because it can't handle this scale of commits. But I estimate ~1K commits per day on average.
There's a blog entry https://nousresearch.com/refactoring-hermes-with-1393-agents that details some work that was done by LLMs to refactor and improve the code.
I guess they know how to hold it?
