Alright Claude Code people… I’m genuinely curious. What does your setup actually look like? Not the polished “this is my workflow” answer. I mean the real one. The chaotic one. The optimized one. The over-engineered one. The secretly genius one. How are you running this thing? Are you: • Forcing Plan Mode every single time like a disciplined adult • Or just raw prompting and letting it cook Are you feeding one massive master plan and stepping back Or breaking everything into micro prompts like you’re conducting surgery Terminal only? Cursor? VS Code? Coworker? Five tabs open like a mad scientist? Are you running MCP servers? If yes, what are they actually doing for you? Are you orchestrating multiple agents or keeping one main brain in charge? Do you run QA passes or just ship the first output and pray Are you doc heavy first with specs, constraints, and acceptance criteria Or do you drop in a high level objective and iterate live I want the real workflow. Drop it like this: Your setup: Default prompt style: Plan Mode: always / sometimes / never Editor: MCP: what it does for you: Agents: how many and why: Plugins you can’t live without: Your actual step by step in 5 lines: I’m trying to see patterns between the people who are flying and the people who are fighting the tool all day. Let’s compare notes. submitted by /u/TheWolfeofNashville
