The original title is "How My Claude Skills File Changed AI Assisted Development"

Short summary

The author shares a CLAUDE.md skills file (originated by Andrej Karpathy) with four behavioral guidelines for AI-assisted development: think before coding, simplicity first, surgical changes, and goal-driven execution. The guidelines bias toward caution over speed and aim to reduce unnecessary diffs and overcomplication. The author adds personal commentary arguing AI cannot truly think and warns against granting AI management permissions, though this digresses from the technical content.
