Vibe coding (letting AI rewrite everything in one massive conversation) feels great for demos but breaks down hard in production.
The problem: too many changes in one shot = nightmare to review. Context window bloat = slower responses + more hallucinations. Token savings? Nope. If you take a break, cache expires and you burn even more tokens re-explaining everything.
One-shot coding only works if you finish in one sitting. Otherwise you're paying the context tax every time you resume.
