My minimal LLM instructions. These are the current ones for @jetbrains IDEs with their in-IDE AI in particular.

LLMs overengineer so easily. They have verbal diarrhea so readily. They have comments like "set a to 1" for lines like "a = 1" all the time.

This prompt reins them in ... somewhat.

@Boomkop3 I've been coding for 35 years and I'm earning money with it since 1998, so I think I'm fine in that regard. LLMs can do tedious tasks real quick. And are easily overwhelmed with architecture.
