This was such a fun read, but also way more relatable than I expected 😄
The way you framed tone as part of developer mental health really clicked for me. I hadn’t consciously thought about how much encouragement (or lack of it) affects long debugging sessions, but it absolutely does.

I also liked how you treated AGENTS.md almost like tuning a teammate’s communication style, not just a config file. That PDCA loop felt very real.

Thanks for writing this — it made me reflect on how I work with AI, not just what I get from it. You’re absolutely right (≧︶≦))( ̄▽ ̄ )ゞ

You're absolutely right! Mental health is very important for Developers to keep on working.

Ah! You're absolutely right! Keep updating AGENTS.md is necessary to make better control of AI.

Perfect! You understand everything important in the post. Now it's your turn to utilize AI. You're absolutely Perfect!🤩

Do you mean you like Claude Code saying Interesting! when she is having trouble with the task? Or do you mean you felt this post Interesting!? Anyway, You're absolutely right!😄

Haha! I’d say Claude would call that interesting :). I find the post interesting :)

I got the issue! You were talking about both Claude Code saying Interesting!, and also saying the post was Interesting! at the same time. In any case, You're absolutely right!😊

You know what I love? The terminal verbs. Claude doesn't think, he noodles, percolates, vibes, smooshes. That's what makes him feel alive. Ruminating...

You're absolutely right! I completely forgot about that issue. I also love Claude Code saying xxxing... There are so many patterns of xxxing... so I never get bored talking with Claude Code. I apologize for forgetting such important issue.🙇

You're absolutely right! I am also using Codex and know it is greaaat, but I was writing only the good part of Claude Code. I apologize for focusing only on Claude Code.🙇

Claude Code Thinking.... I use Codex CLI with GPT and don't use API. Maybe use MCP or change setting to use API. I'll get back to you if I find a good way.🤔

Ah! I misunderstood! I found pages from the OpenAI official documentation that might be a help for you .🧐

Very fun read! I use Claude Code also and "You're absolutely right!". Claude does have quite the sunny disposition.

Thank you! You're absolutely right! to use Claude Code. Hearing you say "sunny disposition", I notice I didn't mention about the sunny orange color of Claude Code in my post. I apologize for forgetting an important topic in my post.🌞
