Is it just me, or are the code generation AIs we’re all using fundamentally broken? For months, I’ve watched developers praise AI coding tools while silently cleaning up their messes, afraid to admit how much babysitting they actually need. I realized that AI IDEs don’t actually understand codebases — they’re just sophisticated autocomplete tools with good marketing. The emperor has no clothes, and I’m tired of pretending otherwise. After two years of frustration watching my AI assistants constantly “forget” where files were located, create duplicates, and use completely incorrect patterns, I finally built what the big AI companies couldn’t (or wouldn’t.) I decided to find out: What if I could make AI actually understand how my codebase works?
