How much of your codebase should AI write? A trust-zone breakdown
For anything bigger, the planning phase matters more than the writing phase. The agent can plan a feature end-to-end, but the first plan is almost always overbuilt: defensive abstractions for problems you do not have, optionality you will not use, indirection that hides what the system actually does. The fix is to iterate on the plan before any code is generated, and this is where you will want an expert eye on it. A useful trick is to feed the plan file to a second agent and ask it to cut the fluff; the second one has no stake in the first agent's elaborations and will strip them without ceremony. OpenSpec takes this further by pinning specs into the repository as their own markdown files, so the plan outlives the chat session.

Spec-Driven Development with OpenSpec
I'm one to stare at the screen blankly, not knowing where to start, or get distracted mid-flow by a shiny new idea. OpenSpec and Spec-Driven Development help automate many of the tedious aspects of the development flow so I can break away when necessary:
- Spec-Driven Development: When Structure Helps and When It Becomes Tax
-
- -dangerously-skip-reading-code – olano.dev
That's literally what OpenSpec does (https://openspec.dev/). It's quite nice. I've only exceptionally rarely seen claude do something wrong based on spec docs when it's fully spec'd out. More often it's because something wasn't nailed down and claude was forced to make assumptions.
The downside is the ospx markdown specs sometimes end up too granular, focusing on the wrong or less important details, so reading the specs feels like a slog.

I Refused to Write Specs Until Claude Code Generated Wrong Code Three Times
This isn't original to me. The 2026 wave of spec-driven tooling (OpenSpec, cc-sdd, amux, Kiro) is all built on the same observation. GitHub Copilot Workspace doesn't even let you skip the step: it generates an editable "proposed specification" before it touches code, because the team that built it figured out that the spec is the only artifact in the workflow that the human can actually review.

Open Design: Use Your Coding Agent as a Design Engine
Yep I agree. I was looking for a getting started like for example here for openspec: https://github.com/Fission-AI/OpenSpec/blob/main/docs/gettin... but couldn't find anything like that

Show HN: MTTCleaner – Same as CCleaner but free, no ads
I'm an IT consultant. CCleaner was a good choice to speed up clients' web browsing experience. Unless you paid, it keeps vomiting ads for the product. Which made it a bad choice.
mTTCleaner does most of the same thing to clean most browsers by cleaning caches, compacting databases, and removing unnecessary metrics files.
It can create it's own cron job/scheduled task to run itself every month, if you choose.
It covers 28 browsers on 3 platforms, assuming you have PowerShell 7+.
Please file any bugs if you find them.
This isn't really going anywhere except to help internet users and my clients.
Hope it's helpful
PS - All of it generated with VS Code, Augmentcode AI (https://www.augmentcode.com/), OpenSpec (https://github.com/Fission-AI/OpenSpec), and beads (https://github.com/gastownhall/beads).
