Everything I learned building a full game with GPT 5.6 Astra, start to finish. Long read.
I would ask the bait post that countless others have... "Has anyone actually let ai rewrite a real production codebase or is this all just vibes"
but i actually have.

this is usually a good but humbling exercise to validate your product/idea. if you have no distribution
Work out the most u can pay for one customer before u spend anything
Paste the prompt below with ur price and margin.
It shows if can actually get u a paying user at that price

Price per hour is a really crap way to pick a model.
I put 2.5bn tokens through Astra and Fable on actual real world dev work. pre opus 5.5.
Astra was about 45% cheaper per hour and Fable was burning my plan 3x faster.
Fable still runs agents, For me its about 5x better at it

Most developer tools could learn a lot from ecommerce.
I’ve done 10m in ecommerce sales and sold a 7-figure brand marketing agency. A devtool can be deeply technical and still need a customer journey that makes sense.

Then look at the moments that feel risky.
Connecting a repo, inviting a team or entering payment details can feel like a bigger commitment than founders expect.
Say what access you need, what happens next and what the user gets.
