There’s a lot of hype about vibe coding—that moment when caffeine hits, your playlist slaps, and you hammer out code like a jazz drummer sprinting through a solo. It’s exhilarating, but relying on that adrenaline burst is like funding your retirement with scratch-offs.
So let’s flip the script to something that actually compounds: vibe refactoring. Same spontaneous energy, but aimed at shrinking technical debt and sharpening your architecture instead of amping up the commit count.
