A Plan-Do-Check-Act Framework for AI Code Generation
AI code generation tools promise faster development but often create quality issues, integration problems, and delivery delays. A structured Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle can maintain code quality while leveraging AI capabilities. Through working agreements, structured prompts, and continuous retrospection, it asserts accountability over code while guiding AI to produce tested, maintainable software.
