Coding agents are moving from autocomplete to doing whole tasks: reading a codebase, making a plan and changing many files. This case is a concrete example of where that works in practice. It is one of 221 sightings filed under Software Development on Agent Sightings (number 150 by interest), and one of 255 involving Claude Code.

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Claude Code or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Here is a raw voice-memo transcript and links to related code. Explore the repo for existing patterns, draft a short PRD, then write PLAN.md with files to touch. Do not implement yet.
