You might wonder how this could happen. The answer is dogfooding run amok. Dogfooding is when you use your own product. It’s a good idea. But it can turn into a cult activity where it goes beyond any reasonable limits. In this case, the idea is vibe coding, where you make a point of literally making no contribution to what’s going on under the hood, not even looking at it. This is, of course, ridiculous. It’s not like there isn’t human contribution happening here. For starters, you’re using a human language, and the machine is using that same human language for its own internal thought processes. You could argue that that other humans, not on the development team, did all that foundational work and your team are doing pure vibe coding. But even that isn’t what’s happening. You’re still building the infrastructure of things like plan files (That’s fancy talk for ‘todo lists’), skills, and rules. The machine works very poorly without being given a framework.
