The presenter walks through a skills repo grounded in the software development lifecycle (define, plan, build, verify, review, ship), demonstrating how each phase works using GitHub Copilot with Gemini Flash to build a habit tracker app from a vague idea through spec, planning, TDD-based implementation, browser verification, and code review. Key topics include progressive skill loading for token efficiency, multi-model workflows (cheaper models for planning, more capable ones for implementation), the MCP vs CLI debate, and the spectrum between vibe coding and disciplined agentic engineering. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
