I used Claude Code for three weeks. I built a dashboard to track home power usage.

The start was fast. Claude built a Next.js project with Postgres and Tailwind. I wrote no code for two days.

Then I added a feature. The code became messy.

• Three different error patterns.
• Mixed API route styles.
• Missing retry logic on some calls.

I spent a Saturday fixing these issues. I would have finished faster writing it myself.

I fixed this with a CLAUDE.md file. I set hard rules:

• Use one error pattern.
• Use one folder structure.
• No new libraries without permission.

The output quality improved.

Vibe Coding works when you set constraints first. AI does not know your taste.

Team use is still a problem. Multiple agents and humans editing one file is hard.
