Hey,

Article 2 of the ATLAS + GOTCHA series is live.

This one is all about ATLAS — the five-phase checklist that structures your thinking before you even open an AI tool. I break down each phase (Architect, Trace, Link, Assemble, Stress-test) with real examples, and then walk through a full ATLAS exercise for a notification service running on Azure.

If you read Article 1 and tried the challenge, this is the next step. GOTCHA organizes your prompt for the AI. But ATLAS is where the real thinking happens — and it's the part most people skip.

There's a downloadable checklist at the end you can use on your own projects.

See you in Article 3.
