Instead of relying on chat logs, it helps developers create structured documentation that lives alongside code, enabling better planning, team collaboration, and AI agent control. The workflow involves setting up project context, creating tracks for features with spec and plan documents, and implementing changes while maintaining state across sessions. This approach keeps developers in control while allowing AI to work with deep project awareness. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
