It greatly depends on what I am doing. If I am using common libraries especially when using JS it is particularly handy, similar with Python. When you branch out into the more obscure it's accuracy and knowledge ends up being unsurprisingly limited.
However when trying cc it left me vey disappointed. For context I’m working on a relatively greenfield rust project and gave it tasks that I would consider appropriate for a junior level colleague like:
- change the return type of a trait and all it’s impls
- refactor duplicate code into a helper function
- replace some of our code with an external crate
it didn’t get any of them correct and took a very long time. Am I using the tool wrong?
How are you using cc or other agentic tools?
