I had an encounter with the opposite problem the other day, PM asked me if the library I was using for randomization was "secure" and I said, "Yes, I used the standard Java library for cryptographically secure random numbers that is already used in several other locations in this project," and he said, "But did you ask Claude if it's secure? It has to be secure!"

- joquarky 1mo agoHave your agent write a report on why it is secure, have it compare with other methodologies, pros and cons tables, and anything else you can pad out a few dozen pages, then ask the PM to review it and choose which method to follow before you proceed. Repeat for all instances of micromanagement until they learn to trust your judgement and expertise.
