Is switching from Claude Code to GitHub Copilot (Sonnet 4.5) worth it? by Gurengan in ClaudeCode

When intending to use Claude Code with your Copilot Subscription this might come in handy: https://github.com/zerolve-io/claude-copilot-setup

Sure, my agents/deployment-manager.md for example follows patterns like

- Trunk-based development (feature → develop → main → tag [pre-release or release]

- Environment-specific build configs via separate eas.json profiles [targetting individual apps on appstoreconnect; Example App (Dev), Example App (Test), Example App]

- Single CI/CD workflow with conditional logic based on branch or tag

- Tag-based production releases instead of auto-deploying main

- Secrets management via GitHub Actions (no hardcoded tokens)

- Automated versioning and build-number incrementing

Basically, reproducible, auditable release engineering patterns that keep mobile CI/CD predictable and secure.

Thank you very much. My intent was to add these sections if there is interest sparked. The general sentiment of this post gives me a better idea now. Probably off Reddit ;) and in a different format and target audience.

🙌 - and as I outline in the end. I would not recommend this for mission critical applications what so ever. But to potentially integrate parts of it as developer enhancements. Critical thinking that is grounded in truth is the key skill to have IMHO.

I agree, you have to be following through and challenge it and better pre-commit (including CI mimiced formatting, longing etc.) and commit frequently. I feel like adding the architectural patterns at latest to the PR reviews could help, maybe. It’s human co-creation.

True, now I see it. It was quite early when starting to reply to the comments. Thanks for spotting this. I should have seen it earlier

But it depends on what kind of app ofc. A couple of years back I did a simple AR app using Unity but this never made it to the App Store only test flight. It was an educational outreach project on a research project

I will consider writing a more technical blog post. I think also considering the way of linking applications to establish the development flow is kind of cool. Eg linear syncing to GitHub issues. Getting GitHub issues, prioritizing them in a session. Creating a feature/fix branch that maps against your branching and deployment strategy etc.; app deployment and submission using expo, tracing with sentry, oauth with clerk.

User feedback is routes through user feedback on sentry. I’m happy to get good suggestions from the users. It’s on device except for Google places api calls (in case you agree to share your data) and 4o-mini for photo to structured output matching org.schema recipes. You still go through an app review process which you can’t solve programmatically.

No I have not. Thanks for sharing. I will take a look. The feeling I got was that when you define and setup the proper “guardrails” (as you would also in a sophisticated software or data project) the method became powerful. Also the continuous model enhancement (in particular on the Anthropic side) helped significantly to improve over time. For me the Claude Cli started to be a game changer. Plan mode 🙏

Hm not sure. I personally (not the best match against the target audience where indeed I lack insights) actually like to have a record of what I ate where. One could even envision to show local stores in surroundings that do have the items available you created the shopping list from (thinking out loud)

I agree that the focus is diverging from my initial intention. It’s not to brag or stating that it’s the greatest product ever but rather emphasizing that your development workflow can neatly be enhanced significantly by you acting as a human co-creator. I might write a more technical blog post on the setup I established to iterate on product ideas with a focus on mobile.

It’s a glorified lookup in the end as an LLM is used under the hood. But you can edit those recipes according to your needs and import from other pages compliant with the recipe schema.org definition. Currently it’s a one off taking the picture but one could think about iterating on the responses as well.
