The Hidden Tax of AI-Assisted Development (And How I Fixed It)
The article discusses the inefficiencies of AI-assisted development, particularly the time spent orienting the assistant at the beginning of each coding session. It introduces a solution called Perseus, which resolves facts before the assistant reads them, significantly speeding up the process. The author compares the performance of Perseus with traditional methods, highlighting its advantages in terms of speed and efficiency.
- ▪AI coding sessions often require time-consuming orientation for the assistant.
- ▪Perseus resolves facts at render time, making the process faster and more efficient.
- ▪The performance of Perseus is significantly better than traditional runtime tool calls.

You open your editor, the assistant says hello, and you spend the first five minutes orienting it. "What branch am I on?" "What services are running?" "Where did we leave off last session?" "Is the test suite green?" It's a tax you pay on every session.
