What Arcane Engine Struggles With¶

There are a few things that Arcane Engine still struggles with. We’re working hard on improving these capabilities:

Editing Large Files¶

Arcane Engine can read and write to files, but it struggles with large files. GPT-4 has the baked-in tendency to leave placeholders like # Rest of the file remains unchanged when it encounters large files.

Workaround: Break down large files into smaller ones and use Arcane Engine to edit them.

Complex Scenarios¶

The more complex the scenario, the more likely Arcane Engine is going to get sloppy, leave things out or misunderstand your command.

Workaround: Break down complex scenarios into smaller, more manageable tasks and combine them in a back-and-forth conversation.
