Lab 3.1: Long-Horizon Projects
Learn to break down massive features into agent-sized bites.
Step 1 of 3
Don't Boil the Ocean
Agents struggle with vague, massive requests like "Build a dashboard." To succeed with long-horizon projects, you must act as the Lead Architect and decompose the work.
Bad Prompt
"Build a full analytics dashboard with charts, user auth, and export to CSV."
Result: Agent gets stuck, hallucinates APIs, or writes spaghetti code.
Good Strategy
1. Create database schema.
2. Build API endpoints.
3. Create Chart components.
4. Assemble Dashboard page.
Result: 4 successful missions. Clean code.
