There are a bunch of great tips in here for getting better use out of LLMs for code generation and debugging.

The best way to learn LLMs is to play with them. Throwing absurd ideas at them and vibe-coding until they almost sort-of work is a genuinely useful way to accelerate the rate at which you build intuition for what works and what doesn't.

LLMs are no replacement for human intuition and experience. I've spent enough time with GitHub Actions that I know what kind of things to look for, and in this case it was faster for me to step in and finish the project rather than keep on trying to get there with prompts.
