Non-developer stuck at 65% with Claude Code: rules files and CLAUDE.md weren't enough
jinguh · reddit · 2026-10-26
A non-developer on Reddit describes the wall when building apps with Claude Code and Codex: progress stalls around 65%, then endless bug-fixing as the AI ignores agreed requirements or changes things unasked. Adapting shared rules files and CLAUDE.md templates didn't help. The poster asks others in the same position for concrete examples of where they got stuck, what failed, and what actually changed to let them finish.
