Not OP, but a couple of days ago I managed to vibecode my way through a small app that pulled data from a few services and did a few validation checks. By itself its not very impressive, but my input was literally "this is how the responses from endpoint A,B and C look like. This field included somewhere in A must be somewhere in the response from B, and the response from C must feature this and that from response A and B. If the responses include links, check that they exist". To my surprise, it generated everything in one go. No retry nor Agent mode churn needed. In the not so distant past this would require progressing through smaller steps, and I had to fill in tests to nudge Agent mode to not mess up. Not today.

I’m wrapping up doing literally the same thing. I did it step-by-step. But, for me there was also a process of figuring out how it should work.
what tools did you use?

Nothing fancy. Visual Studio Code + Copilot, agent mode, a couple prompt files, and that's it.
