I don't know your setup but I only use Claude Code w/ Sonnet and basically tell it to type low caps, drop the formatting (it seemingly makes it type out confident statements causing it to go deeper into hallucinations)
and best is when you have e.g. some scripts that you want a new variant of, e.g. to generate the same thing but for X
you have to give it your wishes, otherwise it'll go to whatever median training thing it had in mind
I don't know what your requirements here were, if it was some kind of custom format then I don't know how well it'd perform
for those kind of situations, leaning on its bash capabilities (Claude Code) to test its sed / awk whatever is a good idea before just telling it to go write the thing
I think for super novel strange things you want to be in the loop first, solve the main problem and them kind of tell it to make it into a script you can call with args or whatever that'd otherwise be a pain to write manually
And that's kind of one of my main uses for it, writing scripts I'd otherwise hate to write, e.g. a bunch of just parsing, args, ifs, error handling, duplicate behavior etc..
