### 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.

### Source excerpt

Claude Code programs better than me but with no taste, so I train it to feel my sense of code beauty through a CLAUDE.md manifesto and custom style checkers.
