Vibe coding is directing software work in natural language while agents change a repository. Play a worked run of a catalog sitemap: artifacts move the wire, tests can go red, debug loops back to the coding agent, and production stays a human gate. This is an educational map, not an automated factory.
PIPELINE
Worked run
Catalog sitemap
One job through the pipeline: a crawlable sitemap of published encyclopedia URLs. Not a ranking product. Not a live deploy from this page.

Stage 01 of 13 · Intent
Idea
A product idea is a problem and a user, not a stack.
What happens
Someone names a problem worth solving and a first user.
Why
Without a problem, later agents optimize a void.
Who performs it
Human, optionally a PM agent for clarification.
How agents help
A PM agent can restated the problem and list assumptions — not invent demand.
