Key strengths include using it as a knowledge base for unfamiliar code, executing well-specified tasks, and parallelizing work with Git worktrees. Limitations include context window degradation over long sessions, the need for well-maintained CLAUDE.md system prompts, and the risk of accepting poorly architected AI-generated solutions. Workarounds like using /clear between tasks, Plan mode for ambiguous features, and MCPs (Linear, Sentry, Figma, Graphite) are highlighted. The team concludes that AI coding tools genuinely improve workflows once you build intuition for what they handle well versus poorly. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
