I have been trying to convince Claude to use "Claude" instead of first-person pronouns, and only recently have gotten it to say stuff like "Claude'll go ahead and take care of that now", but it's very inconsistent (shocking).
This is the approach I’m taking, along with being much more verbose than my normal style with comments in the code and commit messages (including snippets of the prompts/insights that inspired the change).
> […] the knowledge base isn’t just for research. It’s a context engineering system. You’re building the exact input your LLM needs to do useful work.
> […] there’s a real difference between prompting “help me write a design doc for a rate limiting service” and prompting an LLM that has access to your project folder with six months of meeting notes, three prior design docs, the Slack thread where the team debated the approach, and your notes on the existing architecture.
Noticed that and was wondering, thanks for the explanation. Does this imply that human-people need to go “vouch” for the flagged comments to bring them back into HM’s good graces?
I think if you treat it like a coworker who you respect, it will speak to you like a coworker who respects you, but will still make some idiotic mistakes...
Yesterday it was showing a hint in the corner to use "/btw" but when I first tried it I got this same error. About ten minutes later (?) I noticed it was still showing the same hint in the corner, so I tried it again and it worked. Seemed to be treated as a one-off question which doesn't alter the course of whatever it was already working on.
