The dropping requirements problem is real. What's helped us is breaking the spec into numbered ACs and having the verification run per-criterion. If AC-3 fails you know exactly what got dropped.

I do it per feature, not per step. Write the AC for the whole feature upfront, then the agent builds against it. I haven't added a spec-validation step before coding but that's a good idea. Catching ambiguity in the spec before th

Agreed. The spec file is context. Writing acceptance criteria before you prompt provides the context the agent needs to not go off in the wrong direction. Human leverage just moved up and the plan/spec is the most important step. Paral

This is great. The tests in this case are the spec. When you give the agent something concrete to fail against, it knows what done looks like. The problem is if you skip that step and ask Claude to write the tests after.

i think the friction has moved upstream - now it's working on the right thing and specifying what correct looks like. i don't think we are going back to a world where we will write code by hand again.

yup, agree - i spend most of my time reviewing the spec. The highest leverage time is now deciding what to work on and then working on the spec. I ended up building the verify skill ( https://github.com/opslane/verify )

Test theatre is exactly the right framing. The tests are syntactically correct, they run, they pass but do they actually prove anything?

yeah honestly thats what i am struggling with too and I dont have a a good solution. However, I do think we are going to see more of this - so it will be interesting to see how we are going to handle this. i think we will need some kind of

thats a great idea - i have been using codex to do my code reviews since i have it to give better critique on code written by claude but havent tried it with testing yet!

yeah i have started using codex to do my code reviews and it helps to have “a different llm” - i think one of my challenges has been that unit tests are good but not always comprehensive. you still need functional tests to verify the spec i

Yeah just wanted to see what the bottlenecks would be as I started pushing the limits. Eventually made this into a verification skill(github.com/opslane/verify)

yeah i have been hearing a lot more about this concept of “digital twins” - where you have high fidelity versions of external services to run tests against. You can ask the API docs of these external services and give it to Claude. Wonder i

yup agree - i think have specs and then do verifications against the spec. I have heard that this is how a lot of consulting firms work - you have acceptance criterias and thats how work is validated.

yeah i agree - this is somewhat the approach I have been using more of. Write the tests first based on specs and then write code to make the tests pass. This works well for cases where unit tests are sufficient.

At my previous startup, CSV import was make-or-break for customer onboarding. We built the first version in three days. Then reality hit: Windows-1252 encoding, European date formats, embedded newlines, phone numbers in five different forma
