I just commit with a “wip!”-prefaced message whenever the LLM pauses and says it’s finished, including new files. You can squash and cleanup later, or revert back to a state before it screwed up.

Also doubles as a way to cohesively look at the changes it made without all the natural language and recursive error/type fixing it does while working.

I don’t understand why people are making it so complicated. You’re saving a minute per iteration with the LLM, tops, at risk of losing control or introducing hard to find issues. It is the definition of diminishing returns.
