In this gist, you can find all the VS Code chat modes I am using in my projects for the Persona based approach technique I created.

You will find an article about on my dev.to blog (dev.to/kasuken)

Beast Mode

Beast Mode is a custom chat mode for VS Code agent that adds an opinionated workflow to the agent, including use of a todo list, extensive internet research capabilities, planning, tool usage instructions and more. Designed to be used with 4.1, although it will work with any model.

Below you will find the Beast Mode prompt in various versions - starting with the most recent - 3.1

Installation Instructions

Go to the "agent" dropdown in VS Code chat sidebar and select "Configure Modes".
Select "Create new custom chat mode file"

Back story

OOP Design (object-oriented programming) is a good exercise to show how to split up our system into different components. You can think of React Components but instead, we are separating our system into different objects/classes. The important factor of this problem and problems like these are that they are opened ended and force you to think abstractly and creatively. The main goal of this exercise is to be able to draw out diagrams to communicate abstract ideas before they begin to be implemented with code.

These problems are language agnostic (meaning language-neutral, or cross-language)

Learning Objective

To understand and design activity diagrams and class diagrams.
