I just did three tasks purely with Claude - at work.

All were pretty much me pasting the Linear ticket to Claude and hitting go. One got some improvement ideas on the PR so I said “implement the comments from PR 420” and so it did.

These were all on a codebase I haven’t seen before.

The magic sauce is that I’ve been doing this for a quarter century and I’m pretty good at reading code and I know if something smells like shit code or not. I’m not just YOLOing the commits to a PR without reading first, but I save a ton of time when I don’t need to do the grunt work of passing a variable through 10 layers of enterprise code.
