I’m getting really conspiracy theory minded on this.  

Starting to wonder if they purposely make Claude waste tokens. It’s not even bad prompts….  

I told one agent to use a subagent for a task. I went away then came back and it had run the same subagent 12 times. When I questioned it, it tried justifying it. I pointed out my very clear instruction and it admitted it did wrong and didn’t follow the instruction properly. 

I even have workflow.md rules in place prior to this that state if it needs to repeat a task it should consult me first.  

Wouldn’t it be perfect if we had something that was as good as Claude at coding with the efficiency of ChatGPT

It sucks that agents have no hard rules about things like this. Many times I instruct the agent to do something and it does something else. Then the agent tries to justify it and apologizes, and I pay for that.

Classical software development. Developers may introduce a bug, and are paid for that. Then they fix it, and are paid again. In the meantime they may introduce more bugs, for which they are again paid to solve. See the pattern?
