Building Myven: Balancing Speed and Quality

While building Myven with Symphony and Codex, I realized something: I thought I had defined the issues and PRs well, but they still weren’t broken down into small, understandable enough pieces.

So I updated the policy and the skill, and I’ll try applying them in the next turn.

Codex is helping me build faster than thinking through everything alone, but it still feels slow.

Even for an MVP, skipping code quality eventually comes back to me. I’m wondering whether it’s better to sacrifice a little quality and ship the beta faster.
