> If I give it a really good explanation of what I want in code or even English, and ask it to do it another way or implement it with specific tools, I get pretty good output.

I don’t get good output, not when trying to get code that matches a detailed spec (which includes the languages I wish to use, the structure of the APIs, and the libraries I think might be useful) so your suggestion that we’re “just wrong” and your claim that the tools can be used for coding “complex tasks” is difficult for me to swallow.

I’ll admit that perhaps I’m not using ‘em right but that’s why I’m here—to get advice on /how/ to use ‘em correctly; to date, the implications found in the advice I have received is to: - limit my scope to strict HTML/JS (not web/ui frameworks), or - limit the size of the project to a handful (less than ten) of very short files, or - limit my scope to code translation only, or - limit the size of my chat sessions.

Unfortunately, those limitations don’t fit the needs of my environment.
