What is an AI-powered development workflow?

It's structuring LLM chats into phases — plan, brief, implement, review — to ship from GitHub issue to PR without drift or waste.

How to stop Claude context drift?

Generate a project brief mid-chat, save it, start fresh sessions with brief + current code state.

Do cross-model reviews really catch more bugs?

Yes — different LLMs spot blind spots in each other's code, like missing CSRF or metadata loss.
