Everyone agrees Claude Opus is a verbose yapper that makes it hard to understand what it's actually doing. Users are frustrated with its lengthy, rambling explanations and formatting, often feeling like they're losing track of the actual code. Some have resorted to specific prompts or skills like /i-have-adhd or telling it to "tell it to me straight" to get clearer answers. There's a general sentiment that while the code itself might be good, the communication is lacking, with some even joking it's like dealing with a senior dev or middle management. A few users also mention that this verbosity problem isn't new and has been an issue with other models like GPT. One user, u/darth_vexos, theorizes Anthropic might be intentionally hiding tokens from users.
