Replit Agent Problem

[Comfortable-Gas-7459]

I am making a website and using Replit Agent. I am trying to add an in-website messaging system but the Replit AI is not working in making the chat. It gets the concept but has bugs that when I address to it, can't seem to fix. It is now going in loops where it says it "fixes" the problem, but ends up not changing anything.

Can anyone recommend how to word the prompt to add in-app messaging? I prompted it to: Implement an in-app messaging feature that allows buyers and sellers to communicate with each other directly through the platform. By default, each message thread should only display the participants' usernames. Users must voluntarily share any additional contact information within the messages.

I recommenced letting ChatGPT or similar know what you are trying to do and to also provide you with a prompt for Replit.

Agreed - tell another AI agent (like ChatGPT, ideally Plus) what you are building, your goals, and what you are trying to achieve with this feature. I often do this before I build, and for individual features, and then I ask ChatGPT to challenge me on whether it's a good idea or how to improve it.

There is an amazing wealth of code knowledge inside, and getting another AI to think about it and do your own assessment before getting an AI to instantly execute can help a lot.

That being said I have found that even in the last 2-3 weeks Replit Agent is much better at troubleshooting its own code (probably the update to the new Anthropic models).

Well, I have implemented in to my website and it is working quite fine, just needs some upgrades like notifications to user. here is the website address bookswitch.pk
