The Core Workflow in AI

WORKFLOW OVERVIEW:

1. Plan first - Create PLAN.md and claude.md before writing any code
2. Manual foundation - Set up your project boilerplate yourself, not with AI
3. Incremental development - For each feature:
   - Break it down into small steps
   - Implement one step at a time with AI
   - Test it manually
   - Review and edit the code yourself
   - Write tests (when appropriate)
   - Commit
4. Never skip manual review - You're responsible for understanding every line
5. Commit frequently - After every working step, not at the end of the day
