What happens when you need to refactor 377 files in a SvelteKit codebase? Without AI, you retire. With Claude Code, you ship it in 11 hours.

This talk walks through real-world examples of using Claude Code for massive refactoring work that would be soul-crushing to do manually. I'll cover:

• How I approach large-scale refactors with Claude (377 files → 364 files → and counting)

• Building and activating Claude Code skills reliably (based on my viral post that's getting 4k+ views in 3 days)

• The workflow patterns that actually work vs the ones that waste your time

• Real examples from production codebases

This isn't about AI replacing developers - it's about using AI to handle the tedious parts so you can focus on the interesting problems.
