How I use Claude to build Mendly
Where an AI model sits in a solo build, and what it is never allowed to own.
This note is an outline. The full piece is being written, and it goes up here when it is worth your time — until then, these are the questions it will answer.
Where it sits in the build
I use AI coding tools heavily and say so. This section will walk through where Claude does the typing, and where I do the deciding.
What I never delegate
- The product decisions
- The business rules
- The architecture
- The verification
How I check its work
Keeping the claim the size of the evidence applies to code a model wrote as much as to code I wrote. This section will cover how that is enforced rather than hoped for.
