I’ve had a good experience with a greenfield project.

The single thing that seems to have helped is that we all agreed to use OpenSpec early on, and to commit the specs alongside the code.

I have no affiliation with OpenSpec and I don’t suspect it’s doing anything unique here, but having the intent develop alongside the code in the repository seems to have ensured that agents have a more holistic view of the project.

It’s a night/day difference when I use an agent against this codebase that integrates its changes using OpenSpec and those that ignore it.
