How I work
Agents do the building. I do the deciding: what gets built, in what order, and whether what landed is what was meant.
-
Start with the problem
Inception with the client before any code: a PRD, a clickable demo and a week-by-week build plan. Often the most valuable output is a shorter feature list.
-
Lock the documents
Requirements, journeys, page specs and brand are written down and reviewed. When something is missing, agents flag the gap instead of guessing.
-
Agents build in parallel
Work is split into epics and run in dependency waves, each agent on its own branch against its own database, everything through pull requests.
-
Guardrails decide what merges
Permissions live in Postgres, tests run in CI, and nothing merges red. Agents never reach production data or production secrets.
-
Check against intent
Green tests are not the bar. I test what landed against what was meant, because an agent can pass every test and still miss the point.
-
Hand over something they can change
Clients leave able to evolve the product themselves, with tests and review underneath so a bad prompt cannot cost them their data.
Hackathons
One Eleven runs internal AI hackathons: one day, build something with AI, no strings attached. These are mine.
