I think this is a brilliant talk and truly captures the "zeitgeist" of our times. He sees the emergent patterns arising as software creation is changing.
I am writing a hobby app at the moment and I am thinking about its architecture in a new way now. I am making all my model structures comprehensible so that LLMs can see the inside semantics of my app. I merely provide a human friendly GUI over the top to avoid the linear wall-of-text problem you get when you want to do something complex via a chat interface.
We need to meet LLMs in the middle ground to leverage the best of our contributions - traditional code, partially autonomous AI, and crafted UI/UX.
Part of, but not all of, programming is "prompting well". It goes along with understanding the imperative aspects, developing a nose for code smells, and the judgement for good UI/UX.
With your tool can I hook it up to Cursor and just have it use it?

I’ve only used it with Claude code
I did a post in Show HN where you can see the installation instructions. I would put them here, but ware on the iPad. It’s an MCP server so it should work. I would’ve thought cursor and other IDs would have some type of sytactic analysis built-in

I find our current times both scary and exciting.
