My AI-Assisted Workflow

https://www.maiobarbero.dev/articles/ai-assisted-workflow/

Article

  • Spec-driven AI workflow: define skills/rules, write PRD, break into tasks, then implement
  • Uses markdown files and Claude Code slash commands to structure each feature as a thinking problem first
  • Emphasizes spec quality over prompt quality as the leverage point

Discussion

  • Multiple commenters noted similarity to BMad Method, spec-kit, and waterfall development
  • Top variant: /rubberduck command for rubber-duck discussion before writing any spec
  • Skeptics: if AI needs this much scaffolding, it’s not that intelligent yet
  • Others shared similar flows using Notion, Linear, or superpowers/GSD instead
