No, but when a junior puts up a PR I do. They aren’t trustworthy enough yet.
One of the biggest parts of being senior is ownership of your code and knowing you’re putting your trustworthiness behind every PR you make. If you’re making bad PRs, you can’t say it’s Claude’s fault because you didn’t think a certain area was worth reviewing.
> That's just impossible.
Somewhat, but this is directionally bad advice. There’s huge payoffs for taking time to thoroughly understand areas you’re working in. It greatly amplifies your ability to prompt and overall execute in a codebase.
