the prompts are generated from the planning steps. If you were to follow the prompts in the planning phase, you would get output that is clearly the "starting prompt"

that is the first thing you send to aider.

also - there was a joke below, but you can do --yes-always and it will not ask for confirmation. I find it does a pretty good job.

Am I overthinking

    yes | aider

Hahahaa well that might work but I wish you could just say `aider --go-hog-wild`

fwiw it doesn't/that was a joke. In some cases the LLM will suggest running a command that doesn't terminate (eg npm run dev to run a webserver), so it'd get stuck running that command just waiting for user input.

:( big sad

Surely you can just ask the ai to make sure the code will terminate before it runs it? /s

You jest, but given something that's in it's training data, ChatGPT's able to say the code won't terminate (eg a code to give all the Fibonacci numbers), so there are subsets of the halting problem it can solve for.

Yeah, everyone is saying this article is great, but it's akin to "then draw rest of the owl". It's very detailed in planning, and then for execution just "paste prompt into claude". What prompt?
