Here&apos;s what that actually means in practice.</description><pubDate>Sat, 05 Sep 2026 17:41:28 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>What Is Spec-Driven Product Management?</title><link>https://heyargus.app/blog/what-is-spec-driven-product-management/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://heyargus.app/blog/what-is-spec-driven-product-management/</guid><description>Spec-driven development changed how engineers work with AI agents.
