Yeah I was trying to pull out a nested react component and styles out of a larger component that got to be almost 1500 lines. Claude and GPT both struggled to get down what styles were required and what that subcomponent was actually doing. And generating tests around just made a fuck ton of spaghetti.
Which is fine. LLMs don’t have to be great at everything. But it’d be nice if people stopped saying I’m gonna be out of a job because of em.
I’ve noticed that in some of my bootstrapped code (also an MCP server :) ). I think it tends to bias towards single file solutions so it tends to be a lot less maintainable.
Maybe fastmcp is too new for Claude, it’s much less code and still one file
Is that why they like tailwind so much? Philosophically tailwind just seems unsustainable to me, css specifying the intent of an element seems nicer.
