Summary
Addy Osmani’s January 2026 blog post describes his workflow for coding with LLMs going into 2026, which he calls a disciplined “AI-assisted engineering” approach. It covers writing a spec and plan before code, working in small iterative chunks, packing in context, choosing and switching models, using CLI and asynchronous coding agents under supervision, testing and reviewing everything, committing often, steering the model with rules files, and relying on CI and automation as quality gates. Its central argument is that classic software engineering discipline matters even more when AI writes much of the code, and that the human engineer stays accountable.
