Execution

# must run at the root of your application
my-engineer

How to use

• my-engineer will open a blank vscode file, enter your instructions ("write a complete next.js application" or "add comments to all files in my codebase"). Processing will start when you close the file (⌘-W).

Things to know:

• my-engineer uses Sonnet 3.5 to generate the code change instructions, but uses Haiku for everything else
• Anthropic API requests are cached, so continuing a conversation is 10% of the cost of starting a new one
• You have 5 minutes to continue a conversation before the Anthropic cache expires
• A log of the interaction with the llm is created in the folder runs/
• The file file_summaries.yaml is only update with new files, if you make significant changes to many files, delete it so it gets re-created

Recommended addition to .gitignore

runs/
file_summaries.yaml
