Plan Before You Prompt: Templates for AI-Assisted Development AI coding agents will scaffold confidently wrong code without upfront planning. A 4-step framework with copy-paste prompts and context file templates.

AI coding agents are fast, but without a plan, they're fast at being wrong.

4-step framework I use before any agent touches my codebase. All templates are open source.

AI Makes the Easy Part Easier and the Hard Part Harder for Developers AI handles writing code but leaves the hard work: investigation, context, validation. Why vibe coding has limits and AI assistance can backfire.

AI Makes the Easy Part Easier and the Hard Part Harder.

AI-generated code is other people's code. We've offloaded what developers are good at (writing) and kept the harder part (reading and reviewing), without the context we'd build by writing it ourselves.

Claude Code /insights ratted me out for yelling at my AI. Across 64 sessions it catalogued every wrong diagnosis, missing migration, and my "firm scolding".

New CLAUDE.md rules, hooks, and prompts based on the insights report.

Egoless Programming: Greatest Hits - 30 Principles for Better Dev Team 30 egoless programming principles from Weinberg, Atwood, McKinley, and real dev team failures. Critique the code, not the coder - and 29 more.

Did a spit-take at some horrendous code. Wiped my monitor. Checked who wrote it. Me, 6 months ago.
That's when I started collecting egoless programming principles. Here's 30 of them.

Code Review for Teams That Ship A short guide to code review that actually works. For authors, reviewers, and team leads. No fluff.

Code Review for Teams That Ship

When the reviewer isn't spending cognitive load on things the author or CI should have caught, they can go deeper on the things that need human judgment.

How can we make it easier for each other?

SBAO: Turn 5-Week Builds into 5 Hours – No Code Needed How Signal-Based Adaptive Orchestration (SBAO) helped ship a production app in 5 hours with zero lines of code written manually.

Most people use AI wrong:
- One AI for everything = blindspots
- Multiple AIs for everything = slow

The unlock is knowing WHEN to escalate.

I call it Signal-Based Adaptive Orchestration.

The SBAO secret for turning a 5-week project into 5 hours - without writing a single line of code One lazy Sunday afternoon, I went from an empty folder to a production-ready scanner with 13 detectors, three themed personalities, and a Cloudflare Worker proxy. Total time: ~5 hours.

SBAO = Signal-Based Adaptive Orchestration

How I decide when to use one AI vs a council.

Shipped a production app in 5 hours, wrote 0 code, spent 4 hours arguing with the models.

That’s the method, not the problem.
