Ask HN: How do you get better at coding agents?

4•twitchard•1h ago
For me recent level ups were: - Going all in on skills with slash commands. - Learning the phrase "launch an adverserial sub-agent". - Trying out the Codex desktop app.

Curious what you all have learned recently that felt like a "paradigm shift" in the way you are using your coding agents?

I always thought, from experience, that you became a master of your specialist field, regardless of what it is, after working at it for 10 years.

you could be a baker, a scientist, a psychologist or a developer.

But fuck me, all you wankers using AI can do it in 10 minutes.

using a few skills, is not coding.

going all in, says it all

adding a few forward slashes, is not coding.

using the word paradigm shift because some other fantasists booster used it, is boring as fuck.

I don't think 10 minutes of AI experience is enough to be a master? AI-assisted software engineering is a skill that I want to get better at, just like traditional software engineering is.
