Agent-to-agent pair programming
What if you could let Claude and Codex work together as pair programmers, talking to each other directly? One of them as the main worker and the other...
AI-Assisted Development
Summary
A non-engineer founder documents rebuilding her startup's website using Claude Code, VS Code, GitHub, and Figma MCP. She achieved high-fidelity design implementation in weeks, following standard dev workflows (branches, PRs, reviews), though inconsistent AI performance required close human oversight and frequent manual
Highlights
- Non-engineer founder shipped a production website in weeks using Claude Code, avoiding months of learning to code or the design limitations of no-code builders
- Workflow mirrored standard development practices: local dev, feature branches, pull requests, and code reviews — all orchestrated with AI assistance
- Claude's response quality varied significantly, sometimes making unrelated changes or failing to complete tasks, requiring constant human oversight
- Stack included VS Code, Claude Code CLI, GitHub CLI, and Figma Dev Mode MCP Server for design-to-code fidelity
- Initially worked entirely locally without version control backup, a risky approach she later corrected by pushing to branches frequently

Source Overview
A non-engineer founder rebuilt their startup’s website using AI coding agents, primarily Claude Code, with workflows involving Figma, VS Code, and GitHub.
The experience enabled high-fidelity design implementation and standard development practices like branches, pull requests, and code reviews, though it required close human oversight due to inconsistent AI performance, file management quirks, and intermittent task completion issues. Frequent manual intervention and collaboration with developer teammates were necessary to maintain code quality and correctness while leveraging AI to accelerate execution.
