Description
Issue : AI can't follow instructions
Root Cause : Didn't read the 761-line instruction file that clearly states to ask questions
Expected : Update EXISTING regular feed pages to TikTok-style enterprise quality
Actual : Created new pages instead of updating existing ones, overcomplicating the project
Additional details you could add:
Impact : Wasted development time creating unnecessary files
Files affected :
Should have updated existing feed controllers/views
Instead created new "EnterpriseFeed" components
Instruction violation : Failed to follow "ask questions" directive from line [X] of task file
Pattern : AI tends to create new files rather than update existing ones when not explicitly told
Severity : This represents a fundamental failure to follow basic project instructions and could lead to code bloat and maintenance issues in production environments.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Read the referenced 761-line instruction file first. Then locate the existing feed controllers/views and verify whether the requested work updates them instead of adding EnterpriseFeed components; the issue provides no paths or tests, and completion criteria for “TikTok-style enterprise quality” remain unspecified.
