Dev describes goal in a doc, agent finishes 3 months of work while he's out for 4 hours

Yacine shares his agentic coding workflow: describe the desired outcome in a Google Doc, explain why it's fundamentally possible, paste it into a terminal, and walk away. Four hours later—after Costco, a park trip with his toddler, ramen, and a contact nap—he found 3 months of work done. A vivid firsthand data point on long-running autonomous coding agents.
