Sentry CEO mocks agent 'play-house' UX of stacking slash-command modes in one prompt
zeeg · x · 2026-11-16
Sentry CEO David Cramer (@zeeg) slammed an agent workflow's UX as absurd "playing house": the screenshot shows users must type both /david-mode /pstack:poteto-mode in one prompt to combine modes, append natural-language instructions like "repro first, then fix and verify," and when the agent misunderstands, ask it to edit .claude/skills/david-mode/SKILL.md mid-task, then re-run /pstack:automate-me to update it from newer history. Beyond the snark, the screenshot reveals a practical Claude skills technique: treating SKILL.md as an iterated artifact the agent itself revises.
