What you will learn
AI coding assistants work best with clear context—repo links, defined file scope, and explicit constraints—over vague prompts.
Scoped, step-by-step change plans turn AI into a reviewable collaborator, producing patches humans can verify and trust.
Security, privacy, and secret-management review must shift *left* to the moment code is generated, not deferred to post-merge audit.
Treat AI output like any pull request—subject to tests, policy, and peer review—to build sustainable, low-risk AI-augmented teams.
