I made insane progress with CC over last several weeks, but lately have noticed progress stalling.

I’m in the middle of some refactoring/bug fixing/optimization but it’s constantly running into issues, making half baked changes, not able to fix regressions etc. Still trying to figure out how to make do a better job. Might have to break it into smaller chunks or something. Been pretty frustrating couple of weeks.

If anyone has pointers, I’m all ears!!

It's the plateau; once your codebase hits a certain size/complexity, CC struggles to make exponential progress. To make good progress, you have to dive in and guide it very finely.
