tbh that's not a helpful thing to say. I think a more productive thing would be to ask "What model are you using?" "Are you using it in chat mode or as a dedicated agent?" "Do you have an AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md?"

I've also been underwhelmed with its ability to iterate, as it tends to pile on hacks. So another useful question is "did you try having it write again with what you/it learned?"

In my case I'd have to say "Don't know, whatever VS Code's bot uses", and "no idea what those are or why I have to care".

Okay, tell you what then. Help me learn.

The problem is that I want something that listens on a TCP connection for GD92 packets, and when they arrive send appropriate handshaking to the other end and parse them into Go structs that can be stuffed into a channel to be dealt with elsewhere.

And, of course, something to encode them and send them again.

How would I do that with whatever AI you choose?

I'm pretty certain you can't solve this with AI because there is literally no published example of code to do it that it can copy from.
