Episode notes
Agents Need Intent, Not Just Code
- Agents are powerful but unreliable, often rushing to the first solution and hallucinating details.
- Tessl believes specs can make agents aligned with intent and reduce perpetual manual review.
Create Specs Before Coding
- Capture intent as a spec before agents generate code to separate intent from implementation.
- Then generate tests from that spec so the agent must satisfy concrete examples and regression checks.
Choose Tests First Or Vibe Speccing
- Use either test-first or vibe-speccing modes depending on task importance and speed requirements.
- Generate regression tests afterward even for casual flows to protect future changes.
