> But if you’re the kind of developer who uses agents to write multi-hundred-line PRs that you barely understand yourself, I’d invite you to slow down a bit and try this other, slower style of “vibe coding.” Ask an agent how your PR works and how it might fail. Have it write Markdown docs with Mermaid charts if necessary. Use Matt Pocock’s /grill-me skill until you understand the entire PR front-to-back.
Man so much work to retrofit something that obviously, simply, plainly - just does not work. How about just writing the code yourself? You can even consult AI on the libraries or whatever, but how about just building that model in your head YOURSELF and not loading up on AI slop and trying to memorise that crap. The names of the functions will ring different in your memory once you spend some time thinking over whether you picked the right and clear name vs. just going with whatever statistical median the slop machine picked for you.
