Same. I use /ask in Aider so I can read what it's planning, ask follow-up questions, get it to change things, then after a few iterations I can type "Make it so" while sitting back to sip on my Earl Grey.

I had done something slightly different. I would ask LLM to prepare a design doc, not code, and iterate on that doc before I ask them to start coding. That seems to have worked a little better as it’s less likely to go rogue.
Don’t forgot to realign the dilithium crystals once in a while.
