    This "how to prompt" shit changes like every 3 months. Remember when earlier this year it was critical to tell Claude to keep going because it would just give up. It's amazing this is really considered a product - imagine having to relearn how to drive your car every 3 months.

      Opus models after 4.8 didn’t work well with my homegrown harness, so I just skipped them until 5.5 which seems like a pretty happy match.
