You don’t. LLMs make vibe coding highly customized software that operates exactly as the user wants it super easy, which is awesome. However humans still haven’t caught up to the idea that it doesn’t need to go on GitHub because if it was useful to somebody, they’d have already vibe coded it themselves.

The only way to know if software does what is intended is to use it. IMO that's the real value of OSS: software that has been executed many times by many people in many different environments, which overall increases the trust in the correctness of the system(s).

That's silly. Why waste time remaking what someone already built? What a bleak future

		You could search for “small lightweight browser with add blocking and minimal footprint” and find a few, evaluate them, and choose. Or you could use AI to build a “small lightweight browser with add blocking and minimal footprint.” And tweak it to be exactly what you want in maybe the same amount of time.

		Because the hyper-tailored vibe coded browser front end that you like might be ever so slightly different from the hyper-tailored vibe coded browser front end that I want to use.
