I've found a more productive workflow is to ask claude how it would do the task, go back and forth with it a bit until you both agree on the steps, then have it work through them. i also emphasise the need to have every step in its own commit, then go back and read through the stack suggesting code improvements and refactoring, letting the AI do the tedious work of fixing conflicts and restacking. I'm usually pretty happy with the process and the end result.

Yea it honestly feels like a typical meeting with colleagues, without company politics
