## AI overview

This article presents a workflow for reviewing AI-assisted software development: plan work in milestones, use review gates at multiple frequencies, and maintain a living context file across AI coding sessions. The author tested the approach while building a type-safe event bus with GitHub Copilot and Claude Opus 4.6.
