You launch an AI coding agent, give it a simple prompt, and look at the result. It&rsquo;s generally not great, so you invest the time to learn how to give better prompts. Maybe you even take the time to learn a pattern like <a href="https://blog.nimblepros.com/blogs/sdd-overview/">Spec Driven Development</a>. The quality of the output improves. It&rsquo;s relatively usable. And that&rsquo;s where most developers stop. They&rsquo;re maybe using AI coding agents at 20% of their potential. This series tries to fix that, one layer at a time. AI agent instruction files are the foundation on which everything else builds.</p>
