I've been trying Claude Code for a few weeks after using Gemini Cli.
There's something a little better the tool use loop, which is nice.
But Claude seems a little dumber and is aggressive about "getting things done", often ignoring common sense or explicit instructions or design information.
If I tell it to make a test pass, it will sometimes change my database structure to avoid having to debug the test. At least twice it deleted protobufs from my project and replaced it with JSON because it struggled to immediately debug a proto issue.
