This matches my take, but I'm curious if OP has used Claude code.

Been there, done that!
for those one-off small things, LLMs are rather cool. Especially Cloude Code and Gemini CLI. I was given an archive of some really old movies recently, but files were bearing title names in Croatian instead of original (mostly English ones). So I claude --dangerously-skip-permissions into the directory with movies and in a two-sentence prompt I asked it to rename files into a given format (that I tend to have in my archive) and for each title to find original name and year or release and use it in the file.. but, before commiting rename to give me a list of before and after for approval. It took like what, a minute of writing a prompt.
Now, for larger things, I'm still exploring a way, an angle, what and how to do it. I've tried from yolo prompting to structured and uber structured approaches, all the way to mimicking product/prd - architecture - project management / tasks - developer/agents.. so far, unless it's rather simpler projects I don't see it's happening that way. Most luck I had was "some structure" as context and inputs and then guiding prompting during sessions and reviewing stuff. Almost pair-programming.
