Have you tried a more granular strategy - smaller chunks and more iterative cycles?

At that point, you might as well write it yourself. Instead of writing 300 lines of code, you are writing 300 lines of prompts. What benefit would you get?

Its not. "Add this table, write the dto" takes 10 seconds to do. It would take me few mins probably assuming Im familiar with the language and much longer if Im not.
But its a lot better than that.
"Write this table. from here store it into table. Write endpoint to return all from the table"
I also had good luck with stuff like "scrape this page, collect x and y, download link pointed at y, store in this directory".
