### AI overview

The author argues that Claude Code can program faster and more cheaply than he can, but requires guidance because it lacks the author's preferred sense of code elegance. He uses a CLAUDE.md manifesto and custom style checkers to teach standards involving testing, modularity, error handling, naming, coupling, cohesion, and complexity.

### AI overview

The article argues that architects should facilitate the software architecture process rather than own most design work. Engineers should drive designs according to their scope, with one Driver responsible for moving the project forward, coordinating decision-making, and aligning participants on problems, needs, constraints, risks, solutions, and impacts.
