Vibe-Coding & Prompt-to-AppUse caseplanningworkflowprompting

Write a one-page spec before you vibe-code

Our verdict

The biggest quality jump in vibe-coding usually isn't a better tool, it's a clearer brief. Anthropic's own guidance stresses planning before coding. Use the AI to help write the spec, then build from it.

What it does

Before building, have the AI interview you and produce a short spec: users, core job, screens, data, out-of-scope. Then feed the spec to Lovable, Bolt, v0 or a coding agent.

How builders use it

  • Use the prompt below in any chat assistant.
  • Save the result as SPEC.md in your project.
  • Build one section of the spec at a time.

What to expect

Builds that match what you meant the first time more often.

Copy this: Spec interview

I want to build <idea>. Interview me one question at a time to write a one-page spec.
Cover: target user, the one core job, must-have screens, data model, auth, integrations, and explicit out-of-scope items.
When done, output SPEC.md in Markdown, under 400 words.
