Some initial thoughts:

- It would be significantly more helpful if it could ingest my database schema.

- Why make me manually pick files instead of indexing them all and doing some RAG magic?

- Having used ChatGPT for similar tasks, I'm skeptical that step 2 you have, where it generates a high-level solution, will work all that well. Right now, LLMs work best for me when I'm giving them much more specific tasks and keeping the high-level plan in my head.

- This isn't really a technical design doc in the sense that I use the term? This might just be me using language incorrectly but I typically call a tech design doc a document that explains the inner workings of a system, normally with something like a UML or similar diagram. This just seems like todo list or subtask generation for writing a feature.

- Have you considered feeding the AST directly into the LLM? Honestly just curious how well it would understand the code if you did that vs. giving it the raw source.

Either way, congrats on the launch!
