Working with AI coding agents
How I use AI coding agents in practice. Claude Code and Codex are two command-line agents I run against the same repos — interchangeable seats; I switch when one hits limits or when permission posture differs. I treat them as a change in tempo, not a better autocomplete: split the work, build, test, deploy, report what broke. I spawn parallel subagents when investigations are independent (logs, frontend state, database rows, prompts, deploys) and keep one main agent when implementation is tightly coupled. Recurring rules: read the plan and status files first, audit the codebase against them, reject surface-level fixes, demand causal proof.
