The New Stack proposed Spec-Driven Development (SDD) as the enterprise methodology for AI-assisted engineering — specifications replace prompts as the source of truth, producing persistent, reviewable artifacts that preserve context beyond a single AI chat session. The hybrid approach: use specs for major changes, vibe coding for iteration and refinement. Combined with the Red Hat "three-month wall" and the UpGuard 18K config study, the industry is converging on a structured middle ground.
