How did you go about building this? What was your process, and how did you use AI to aid you?

I used Cursor and Opus 4.5. What made it faster for me was symlinking in a few on-going projects that I've been working on which gave Cursor a reference for how I set things up in these projects.

I also have this method for helping Cursor see the realtime output of services I'm running while developing locally which really speeds things up: https://foundinglean.substack.com/p/the-best-improvement-ive...

This substack is pretty new for me, but I'm planning on sharing more things there which may (or may not) help others. Next article there will just be sharing the symlinking setup (not rocket science - but some people don't know ln -s exists).
