AI coding agents make code cheaper. They do not make specification free. I wrote about the spec trap: loose prompts look fast until rework, token burn, human review, and multi-agent drift show up on the ledger. The sweet spot is not a 40-page requirements document. It is validated acceptance criteria, executable tests, and stronger handoff contracts where they pay. https://www.the-main-thread.com/p/spec-trap-agent-work #AI #SoftwareEngineering #Agile
