Probably not the answer anyone expects here, but VS Code plus Claude Code in the terminal. No fancy IDE integration, just me deciding what to run and when. It's slower than letting an agent loose on the whole codebase but that's kind of the point. I know exactly what changed and why, and I'm not spending half my time trying to understand what the tool did on my behalf

The framing of "vibecoding vs engineering" assumes you're choosing one mode and sticking to it. In practice I switch constantly. AI takes the grunt work, I take the decisions that matter. Also, sometimes I might decide to postpone some decision that seems "proper" to me if I don't have the feeling that this is important. That being said, having a perfect codebase is not a goal in itself to me.

As a small B2B SaaS team we're always looking for ways to cut the manual ops work and keep our reps focused on actual selling. Connecting HubSpot to real subscription data is a no-brainer.

Just one, and mostly for the boring parts honestly. The work I actually enjoy I still do by hand. Not really vibecoding, more like delegating the stuff that feels like a chore. Things like writing boilerplate, setting up configs, or grinding through repetitive refactors, that's where it earns its keep for me. I've tried giving it the control on more interesting problems but I always end up...
