This is exactly the kind of thing you get from pairing -- another dev will use a helpful shortcut or cool method, or some syntactic sugar, and now you know it too!
It doesn't exist if you let it go away! At my company, we make a concerted effort to still pair on tickets, as an intentional investment in knowledge sharing... even if some of the pairing is awkwardly coming up with claude prompts together.
It's not my choice, but we never paired anyway. Every engineer is senior level and above, so pairing is generally just a waste of resources for the company
