I’m running into this as well.

Might be Claude optimizing for general use cases compared to code and that affecting the code side?

Feels strange, because Claude api isn’t the same as the web tool so I didn’t expect Claude code to be the same.

It might be a case of having to learn to read Claude best practice docs and keep up with them. Normally I’d have Claude read them itself and update an approach to use. Not sure that works as well anymore.
