We talk endlessly about Developer Experience (DX), but if your repository relies on chaotic naming, loose types, and zero modular boundaries, your AI tools (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) are going to fail miserably. They will hallucinate, burn through your token window, and suggest code that breaks production.
