Hello, I am a single dev using an agent (Claude Code) on a solo project.

I have accepted that reading 100% of the generated code is not possible.

I am attempting to find methods to allow for clean code to be generated none the less.

I am using extremely strict DDD architecture. Yes it is totally overkill for a one man project.

Now i only have to be intimate with 2 parts of the code:

* the public facade of the modules, which also happens to be the place where authorization is checked.

* the orchestrators, where multiple modules are tied together.

If the inners of the module are a little sloppy (code duplication and al), it is not really an issue, as these do not have an effect at a distance with the rest of the code.

I have to be on the lookout though. It happens that the agent tries to break the boundaries between the modules, cheating its way with stuff like direct SQL queries.
