    Great point on the flow state with pseudo code. The gap I keep running into is what comes after – once the translated code ships to production, knowing quickly whether it actually behaves as intended is still mostly manual. Curious if others have thoughts on that part of the loop.

      Why would that be any more manual than it has been before? You still write or have Claude to write unit and integration tests thst you review

      I feel like that this is fundamentally impossible to solve for. Approximately the effort = planning + checking correctness seems to be constant.

    Btw, I got inspired by this: https://www.williamjbowman.com/blog/2026/03/05/against-vibes...

    Really useful read!

    feedback: your psuedo code example is just product requirements and not actual psuedo code. and I think if you wrote psuedo code it would just work as is without a skill

      True (will fix) - but then still, Claude will still not change my pseudo code, but directly translate. I liked that part particularly.
