And I'm in plan mode and these plan modes have gotten really, really good.

And people are like, I don't need a plan, but it's not about the plan.

That's not what you need.

What you need is the agent to think through with you all of the things that you just forgot to tell it that it needed to include in this initial prompt, because prompting is super hard.

Well,

We did this idea of prompt engineering, which is just prompt engineering is just giving the model the answer that you want.

If you give it enough context, it will get the answer right and give you a right.

If you were to spell out exactly what to do, it could literally build Minecraft on its own.

But you can't do that.

That's not, you can't put the prompt B2B, you can't do it.

So in plan mode, you get this iteration where the agent's like, okay, cool.

Here's, here's, did you think about this?

Here's what I recommend, but here's three other options, or you can do a fourth one.

And you go through about like four or five, six loops of this.

And I'm using Opus 4.6 for this.

It's incredibly good.

And then once you get to a point where you're like, yeah, that's pretty good.

Of course, you're not going to one shot.

an operating system.

But for a lot of us, we can get to sort of like an MVP and a one shot.
