Poll: What percentage of your professional code do you write by hand?

Curious how much code developers are actually writing themselves versus generating with tools like Claude/Codex.

Roughly what percentage of your code did you write manually over the last 30 days?

I do a fair amount of manual code inspection depending on the project. But when it comes to actually making changes, I pretty much always leave it to the agent, even if it's just a one-line fix.

The agent usually has more context than I do, makes fewer mistakes, and is incredibly good at understanding what I want.
