Can someone please explain what is this?

I am already overloaded with information (generated by AI and humans) on my day to day job, why do I need this additional context, unless company I work for just wants to spend more money to store more slop?

How is it different than reversing it, given a PR -> generate prompt based on business context relevant to the repo or mentioned issues -> preserve it as part of PR description

I barely look at git commit history, why should I look for even higher cardinality data, in this case: WTF, are you doing, idiot, I said don't change the logic to make tests pass, I said properly write tests!

I couldn't find any references of Composer 2.0 anywhere. When did that come out?

Fixed. It's Cursor 2.0 and Composer 1.5, mixed that up when editing the post last night.

I don't see how we need a brand new paradigm just because LLMs evidently suck at sharing context in their Git commits. The rules for good commits still apply in The New Age. Git is still good enough, LLMs (i.e. their developer handlers) just need to leverage it.

Personally, I don't let LLMs commit directly. I git add -p and write my own commit messages -- with additional context where required -- because at the end of the day, I'm responsible for the code. If something's unclear or lacks context, it's my fault, not the robot's.

But I would like to see a better GitHub, so maybe they will end up there.

I love this. Prompt engineering is a real skill, and learning by example is the best way to do it. Juniors being able to see how seniors actually did something is really powerful.

With the how AI companies are advertising we can just tell the AI what we want and it will be done with no additional human interaction needed, why do we need a new type of development platform? We shouldn't need to collaborate at all.
