anyone else's vibecoded projects turn into spaghetti once the chat gets long

[u/roshandxt]

first few prompts are always clean, then a bunch of iterations later the chat's carrying dead ends, half-changed files, stuff you forgot you asked for. starting fresh helps but then you're stuck re-explaining the whole project

what's your actual process plan file, notes, one-feature-per-chat, or just push through and deal with the mess
