Building sites with AI has been a game-changer, and I’ve been using tools like Claude, v0, and Replit. One feature I’ve come to really appreciate with Replit is the “mode” setting for its AI assistant. The ability to switch between “Plan” and “Build” modes is incredibly useful.
I believe this specific change would be a valuable addition to v0. It aligns perfectly with the new design mode’s principle of synchronizing the developer’s mindset with the agent’s actions. This clear separation of planning and execution makes the development process flow much more smoothly. It helps the assistant focus on the task at hand and prevents it from getting ahead of itself, making unintended changes based on something that was more of a discussion than a direct command.
What are your thoughts on integrating a similar mode-based system into v0?
I’d love to see Spec Driven Development concepts come into it. I am playing with using project custom instructions as well as prompting strategies which is working ok but it would be awesome if clear design and specification, implementation planning, and exectution steps were built in. Amazon has shown how useful this is with AI models with Kiro and Github just released their Spec Kit which looks pretty good.
