Workflow

  1. 1Plan with Fable xhigh, code with GPT-5.5 xhigh, then have Fable xhigh judge the result.x.com, 2026-07
  2. 2Share plans by copy and paste and personally read the code to check the result.x.com, 2026-07
  3. 3Plan manually before invoking the agent, then ask for a plan-only session on vague or non-trivial work.mitchellh.com, 2025-10
  4. 4Save comprehensive plans as spec.md and ask later sessions to consult the spec for focused tasks.mitchellh.com, 2025-10
  5. 5Use end-of-day agents for research, parallel idea exploration, and issue or PR triage.mitchellh.com, 2026-02
  6. 6Clean up and manually review generated code; he calls this an anti-slop session.mitchellh.com, 2025-10
