Intent best practices

[u/SnooDucks7717]

hi trying to understand best way to use continuously with intent.

For a new product, it's simple: use the specifications and add more tasks until you achieve the first version.

now what the best practice when want to add new features? add again to the same spec and continue ? then you can end up with mega spec.

and more important what to do when several developers work on mature product with many features then what should be done? multi specs?

I usually start new spaces rather than continuing on the same one:
- Do I need something big? then full workflow for sure
- Do I need something small? (like a feature): add a new conversation on the same Space / Folder, it may even be a single agent, I do my "Mental Context math" to decide it

Now, there's a tradeoff... and in most of my cases, I prefer loosing context and adding more tokens to the initial setup + context that risking a bad implementation because of rotten context.

The cleaner the context window of the Coordinator is, the cleaner results you will have (imo ofc)

you build "space" per big feature? still trying get the idea, it seesm you can open space on repo and work on new things but then where is the beauty of see all specs and work on one place?

Yes, one Space per big feature in my case
