in person cost so much. I predict we’ll go down the road of these things costing a small amount and when payment is taken it performs an id check

I think where spec first will fail is if you state a user story A and 80% of the time user story B falls out unstated since it’s most likely to get generated then you risk regenerating and getting the 20% scenario Writing code is cheaper now but once written is relied upon

Thanks for answering Funny how differently you can approach things, solo dev so likely not scalable but I don’t read the specs, those are more like agent read only files after grilling session. Then I delete them after…code is source of truth
