More than a year ago I built my own coding agent called Claudine. I also made agentic anthropic-sdk-kotlin and few other AI libraries for the ecosystem. Maybe this low-level experience allows me to use these tools to deliver in 2 days what would have taken 2 months before.

My advice - embrace TDD. Work with AI on tests, not implementation - your implementation is disposable, to be regenerated, tests fully specify your system through contracts. This is more tricky for UI than for logic. Embracing architectures allowing to test view model in separation might help. I general anything reducing cognitive load during inference time is worth doing.
