Sometimes I’ll ask Claude to think through a problem with me, and instead of talking, it immediately starts editing files and writing code.

Like… bro, I’m not asking you to do it yet. Let’s think first.

Lack of versioning in workspaces. Multiple times I've been "vibe coding" my way happily through adding feature after feature until ... the chatbot goes off the rails and breaks stuff. No amount of additional prompting will fix the issue no matter how many time Claude/CoPilot says "I see the problem. Let me fix that..." and it only gets worse.

Claude provides a * SINGLE STEP * of undo. Gee, thanks.

So, now I'm forced to snapshot code myself. I just wish that was built in.

It's getting more and more difficult to convince web servers that I'm human.
