A good practice is to have a prompt file where you keep the information you want the model to have at its disposal. Then you put it in the start of your conversations with GPT-4. It's also good documentation for people.

You start a project by defining the task. Then as you iterate, you can add new information to the prompt. But it can be also partially automated - the model can have a view of the file structure, classes, routes, assets and latest errors.

I was really hoping that the one year update of Codex would be that - a LLM that can see deep into the project, not just code, but runtime execution, debugging, inspecting and monitoring. Something that can iterate like autoGPT. Unfortunately it didn't improve much and has weird conflicts with the native code completion in VSCode, you get freezes or doubled brackets.
