Scenario

My service price increased, need to update all mentions of old pricing on the website, and check if README matches actual project structure.

💬

Prompt

Scan this Next.js project. Read copy on all 'page.tsx' files. Find any pricing mentioning my old rate of $200 and update it to $300. Check README file and ensure installation instructions match actual file structure.

Expected Result

Claude performed "junior developer level" cleanup: - Scanned all page.tsx files for pricing content - Updated $200 to $300 - Checked README and corrected installation instructions that didn't match actual structure **No manual search-replace needed, Claude understands context.**

💡

Tips

  • Great for batch updating fixed values in codebase
  • Claude understands context, won't blindly replace
  • Can handle multiple types of updates simultaneously

I asked Claude to perform a "junior developer" level of cleanup across my Next.js codebase. The task: scan all page.tsx files, find any pricing mentioning my old rate of $200, and update to $300. Also check if the README installation instructions match the actual file structure. Claude found 12 instances of the old pricing across 7 files and updated them all. It also caught that my README referenced a /components/ui folder that had been renamed to /components/common. What would have taken me 30 minutes of grep and manual editing was done in under 5 minutes. And Claude understood context - it didn't blindly replace "$200" in places where it was referring to something else entirely. This is the kind of tedious maintenance work that AI excels at.
