Not clickbait — measured across six weeks of tickets. The workflow: spec in plain English first, let the agent draft, review it like a PR from a junior dev, write the tests myself. The 'review like a PR' mindset is the whole trick. Blind trust is where the time losses hide.

Designer version of this: AI for exploration, never for the final decision. Same principle — it drafts, you judge.

Writing tests yourself is the underrated part. The moment I let the agent write its own tests, quality quietly collapsed.
