One of the biggest challenges I’ve found in writing code with AI is “getting it right the first time.” While I’ll often iterate on an idea over hours or days, I want that to be because I’m indecisive, not because my agent did too much, too fast.

Breaking your requests into phases (and again, remember, you can ask AI to do all of this for you) can be the difference between a giant mess and a working feature.
