Claims Claude Code excels for data work but still makes systematic mistakes and tends toward average answers; recommendations come from interviews showing 80–90% usage and a cautionary rebuild anecdote of 2,000 developers vs 20 (1%). Practical specifics include using a cloud.md limited to ~200 lines for session context, authoring reusable skills (weekly summaries, data cleaning, A/B interpretation), and wiring MCPs (dbt Notion Atlassian) to let the agent read schemas, fetch past analyses, run queries, and draft actions.
