Paired Programming FAQs

Question 1

What does the Paired Programming skill do?

Accepted Answer

This skill shifts Claude's behavior from an autonomous 'implementer' to a collaborative 'partner.' Instead of writing large blocks of code independently, Claude focuses on iterative loops, asking for approval before making changes, and providing trade-off analysis for different architectural decisions.

Question 2

How does this skill improve my development workflow?

Accepted Answer

It improves your workflow by preventing 'unreviewable' changes. By enforcing a 'show-before-writing' pattern and working in small chunks, it ensures that every step of the implementation is aligned with your vision, reducing the need for massive rewrites later on.

Question 3

Does this skill provide trade-off analysis?

Accepted Answer

Yes. One of its core principles is 'Offer Choices, Don't Pick.' When faced with multiple implementation paths, Claude will present options (e.g., performance vs. readability) with their respective pros and cons, allowing you to make the final informed decision.

Question 4

When should I use the Paired Programming skill?

Accepted Answer

You should activate this skill when working on complex or novel features, making significant architectural decisions, refactoring sensitive code, or when you prefer to maintain high involvement and control over the development process rather than letting the AI work autonomously.

Question 5

How does it handle autonomous overreach?

Accepted Answer

The skill includes specific anti-pattern enforcement. It prevents Claude from making silent assumptions about requirements or automatically moving to the 'obvious next step' without first checking in with you to confirm the direction.
