For the last 2 weeks I have been running Codex + GPT 5.6 Sol Ultra non-stop for almost 13 days, working on a huge extension to my SaaS product / business. It used 502,122,866 tokens and created over 870k new LOC. I have done AI coding of huge features in the range of 50-60k LOC before, which were massive already, we managed to ship them and actually deliver value.
I know this sounds borderline ridiculous, but this time I don't know what to do.
What are the next steps here? It is obviously impossible to review, but it is almost as impossible to actually test. I had put A LOT of work into planning and the workflows and features were spec'ed very precisely and with lots of care and analysis. So far I have only found cosmetic issues, the entire core of the application seems to be working just fine.
I have thought about starting with a user manual / knowledge base for it, to capture the features and have plenty of documentation. But then what? Launch it to production?
Have I passed the threshold of what is humanly possible to do with AI coding, or is there any hope?
