Re:Stop Vibe Coding. Enter Guide Coding. A VSCode Extension on Monday October 19, 2026 @06:29AM (#50150644)
Pretty much the same instinct, yeah. There's a "Discuss first" box when you start a task. If you tick it, it reads around the repo first and tells you what it thinks you mean, what it's unsure about and what it's assuming. Then you just talk it through and dump your edge cases in before it plans anything. I use it on anything that isn't trivial; the plans come out a lot better.

And if you realise halfway that the plan's wrong, you can say so and it re-plans from where you are.

Re:I'm 60 years old. Claude Code killed a passion on Sunday March 15, 2026 @06:05PM (#47392455)
Claude code made a much slower coder for a good reason.

Now I can find out the gaps, corner cases and motivates me more on craftmanship and perfecting the artifacts i delivered.

Google is your friend
Another library ignores shadow dom.

As of now you don't need any frameworks for this. The new command and navigation apis, would just do the same trick.
