Turn Claude Code into a design pipeline instead of a one-shot prompt

Core idea
The article argues that AI’s problem is not raw capability but taste: even if models improve, generic outputs will just move to a new style unless the workflow constrains them.
What the author changed
- Instead of a single prompt, the workflow splits the task into multiple steps.
- The process is meant to force Claude Code to work from references, style guidance, and reusable assets rather than improvising a bland one-shot result.
- The author says they tested a workflow inspired by Chase to fight “AI slop” and found it produced much better design output.
Takeaway
The piece is basically a practical case for treating Claude Code as a design pipeline, not just a chat box: better structure beats hoping the model will magically develop taste.
