A Deep-Dive into OpenSpec and Delta-Driven V&V for AI Agents - Vibe CodingLet’s be honest about the current state of AI-assisted engineering: we are trading structural integrity for raw velocity. If you’ve used Cursor, Claude Code, or Copilot CLI on a real-world, 50,000-linSep 24, 2026·8 min read·3
Stop Prompting, Start Specifying: Hands-On with GitHub Spec KitWe’ve all been there: you open an AI coding assistant like Cursor, Copilot, or Claude Code, throw a sentence or two at it, and watch as it churns out 400 lines of plausible-looking code. Ten minutes lSep 24, 2026·5 min read·4
Beyond AI Coding Assistants: Inside Tessl and the Era of Software FactoriesWe’ve officially moved past the basic auto-complete era of AI development. Today, developers are orchestrating multi-file changes using autonomous agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot. But as Sep 24, 2026·4 min read
Beyond Vibe Coding: A Deep Dive into Kiro (kiro.dev) and Spec-Driven AI EngineeringAI-assisted coding tools have historically suffered from a fundamental flaw: they generate code before thinking through architecture. Developers ask an assistant to build a feature, and while it produSep 24, 2026·6 min read·5
