For Claude, I can recommend to put / organize relevant source files of your app into the project context/container.
Im also in the opposite boat: Claude is such a boon, it allowed me to boost productivity. Though, I mainly used it always for single functions which Im integrating into the code base.
Id say I have a hitquote of 90%+ on the first prompt.
Just yesterday I re-prompted a data visualization component which was developed in the first iteration also with Claude (but Sonnet), I had to do 3 simple prompts to get some heavy optimization which wasnt done in the first iteration.
Also I have to say I like its capability to write useful comments a lot.
