Description

I created vibescaffold.dev. It is a wizard-style AI tool that will guide you from idea → vision → tech spec → implementation plan. It will generate all the documents necessary for AI coding agents to understand & iteratively execute on your vision.How it works: - Step 1: Define your product vision and MVP - Step 2: AI helps create technical architecture and data models - Step 3: Generate a staged development plan - Step 4: Create an AGENTS.md for automated workflowsI've used AI coding tools for awhile. Before this workflow (and now, this tool), I kept getting "close but not quite" results from AI coding tools. I learned that the more context & guidance I gave these tools up front, the better results I got.The other thing I have found with most tools that attempt to improve on "vibe coding" is that they add abstraction. To me, this just adds to the problem. AI coding agents are valuable, but they are error-prone - you need to be an active participation in their work. This workflow is designed to provide a scaffolding for these AI agents, while minimizing additional abstraction.Would love feedback on the workflow - especially curious if others find the upfront planning helpful or constraining.
