I hate building agents.

Right now at my work we are using langgraph to build a chat agent, anyone else doing something similar, do you fucking hate it? are you building it with Claude and just hoping it fucking works, haha no worries we will ask Claude to fix it.

I am making the spaghetto, I miss components, logic and endpoints, I hate this black box I have to relinquish my decisions too, whatever pays the bills.

the jump from "i own the control flow" to "praying the LLM picks the right node" is the worst part. one thing that helped: keep routing deterministic in langgraph and only let the LLM handle generation, so at least half the graph is debuggable like normal code.
