This is quite close to what I've arrived at, but with two modifications

1) anything larger I work on in layers of docs. Architecture and requirements -> design -> implementation plan -> code. Partly it helps me think and nail the larger things first, and partly helps claude. Iterate on each level until I'm satisfied.

2) when doing reviews of each doc I sometimes restart the session and clear context, it often finds new issues and things to clear up before starting the next phase.

When I use other models review plans (eg opus 4.x with Gemini3 or codex5.x), they often surface different issues than the model that wrote the plan.
