I tried and failed to use AI coding on a large code base.

Cline memory keeps track of your project architecture and requirements. Is it good for larger code bases. It's definitely the way forward.

Try adding this to your custom rules

to certain extend my whole project which is quite complex & complicated managed to steer through without any issue, what I noticed is that after running over 200 continuous task / prompting or so it starts to steer off & hallucinate / loop with the fixes over and over again,

this prompt so far managed to keep it at bay by saving task into memory banks, and starting off new task while maintaining smaller context window.

After completing any task:
- Update relevant Memory Bank files immediately.
- Push to Git after every feature set is complete, ignore memory-bank folder before push.
- If there are relevant implementation tasks, present them.
- Once you use up more than 50% of your context Window, Summarize and kick off a new task with user input from next relevant task.

Good video. It confirms my own idea about the state of the art. The thing is, they are stuck on their LLM development. They need to work on agents that will solve real tasks and get feedback from users, and use this data to train their AIs. But if the models aren't good enough, people won't use agents. They seem to be in a deadlock.

The AI should be able to know what it is doing, and detect where it is essentially hung, then prompt you and wait for you to look at it. It's a sort of cobot idea.

I abandoned AI coding assistants completely. I use chat in my browser, copying and pasting and always keeping an eye on the changes via git diff. This case i would implement i18 into the project, than run it to translate the rest. I could not just hand it all to AI.

Have you tried Aider? What you make of that if so?
