Episode notes
CloudCode's Coding Focus
- CloudCode is specialized for coding only, unlike generalist large language models like ChatGPT.
- Wrapping CloudCode enables building code generation tools limited to coding-focused applications.
Use Plan Mode Before Coding
- Use CloudCode's plan mode to outline tasks before auto-generating code.
- This helps scope projects to manageable parts and avoid premature coding.
Set Correct SDK Permissions
- Grant proper file read/write permissions to CloudCode SDK for smooth code generation.
- Lack of permissions can cause prolonged processing and failures.
