Dev Discusses AI Coding Pain: 38 Daily Copy-Pastes Between ChatGPT and Coding Agents
panda0_o_0 · reddit · 2026-07-31
A developer on Reddit shared their inefficient AI coding workflow: planning in ChatGPT/Claude web UI, pasting instructions into Claude Code, and manually copying relevant outputs back to the chat.
They counted 38 copy-pastes in a single day. The main pain point is filtering through hundreds of lines of CLI output to find the 10-20 relevant lines to feed back into the chat. The community discussed whether to consolidate into a single tool like Cursor or maintain the split 'chat for thinking, CLI for executing' workflow.
