For me, this model is very promising. It follows instructions much better than Claude.
It quickly upgraded the project to the newest Spring Boot version (4), then refactored the tests and added more quite complex integration tests. It also fixed an old problem I had with Flyway on my local env (about table name case sensitivity in different environments). It feels like a really good companion for pair programming.

but at first it failed with spring-boot-starter-flyway I had to point out these changes manually.
