Developers Hoard Code To Empower Agents
7.2
Relevance ScoreA software developer describes hoarding reusable code examples and using LLMs and coding agents to recombine them into working tools, notably a browser-based PDF-to-JPEG OCR built in March 2024. The piece details storing snippets across blogs and 1,000+ GitHub repos, explains prompting patterns, and shows how agents accelerate prototype assembly and iteration for practical problem solving.
Scoring Rationale
Practical, reusable workflow with working code examples drives score, limited by single-source anecdotal evidence and modest novelty.
