There are a number of comments that indicate that I'm using coding agents, and wonder if coding doesn't require the same behavior as writing.
Coding agents are absolutely a useful tool - however, that doesn't mean that pure "Vibe Coding" is the best approach for most scenarios. Using coding agents correctly requires a careful approach as well, which also starts with thinking through the problem you're solving!
The details of workflows for coding and writing are different (in my opinion), but at a high level the same concept applies; don't let an AI do the important thinking for you!
I'll probably follow up with another blog post with what I've seen work well for coding.
