How do you build with AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, vibe coding)?

I've been a designer for 20 years. For most of it, an MVP meant Figma for structure, hand-built front-end, an offshore backend team in Estonia or India, and months.

Around December that stopped being true. Now it's 5 days.

So I kept pulling on that thread. Every project got its own repo, and every repo got docs the agent reads before it touches anything, so it knows what's actually true right now.

The agency. 11 iOS apps in various states of shipped. My own training. All of it runs that way now.

When something annoyed me, I stopped shopping for an app. An MCP so Claude can read and write my todo list took one evening. Localized App Store screenshots were such a pain I built a tool for that too.

Building your own tools is the most productive-feeling way to avoid the work you actually need to do.

But here we are.

Most of my day is vibe coding with Claude. Five steps, in this order:

1. Idea first, then research. I run it through Claude and Grok.
2. Domains next. I check them on Cloudflare.
3. PRD with Claude.
4. Design system with Claude Design.
5. Code in Claude Code.

Save this for the next project you start.

Vibe-coded the landing page in just 2 hrs. Feed Claude the landing page of my previous project along with Themefy's documentation & asked to create one. Ofcourse I had to do some tweak, verify the copywrite etc. but the result is super quick. It is live at

Hear me out: instead of asking AI to write my tests, I write them myself and let the AI run them. The tests become the prompt. The failing output tells the AI exactly what to fix. Learned this the hard way.

Today I tried a new dev workflow:

Started ideation and implementation on Claude Mobile, then switched to my computer to test and finish the work.

With `--teleport`, I picked up right where I left off.

Turns out AI-powered development is becoming multichannel too. 🚀

built this ig reel with claude code, no after effects

one html file, claude wrote the render pipeline too. burned ~2h because ffmpeg was quietly dropping frames, squeezed 18s of video into 13

weirdly more proud of this than the actual product lol

Debugging a race condition in our sensor pipeline at (@SIYTEAI) today. Pasted the trace into Claude, talked through timing assumptions, fixed it in 10 minutes. AI pair programming means thinking out loud together. #AI #Debugging #DevTools

saw @mattshumer_ one-shot demo and wanted to try my own

built a skill called benchmark-loop and instead of asking Claude to make something "AAA," it judges the output blind against a named reference and iterates until a fresh reviewer cant tell them apart

used it with Opus 5 to build a Wind Waker inspired sailing game in Three.js - sailing, docking, on-foot island exploration with ramps between terraces, all working

My tool order: use the repository index when available, search precise symbols, read the relevant source, then reuse the helper that already exists.

A plugin earns its place by completing a concrete step. I don’t install one just to make the tool list longer. 2/3

I made it with Opus 5.5 and Remotion skill in 40 minutes

1 - prompting: copy url from X and tell make same in my site theme
2 - setup remotion
3 - render video
4 - iterate
5 - publish it

GPT 6 astra @ChatGPT @OpenAI is developing my photo booth app on its own, how?

The codex can control my desktop to control photo booth device to test app there through ToDesk(alternative of anydesk)

And I setup a camera for codex so it can actually see what’s coming out of the printer

Dev, test, debug, repeat all done by codex

I run local search for my coding agents: MiniLM + SQLite over Markdown notes.
It finds architecture decisions, rejected ideas and unfinished work. MCP returns the relevant passages, so a new chat can find why something was built that way
