I run a used car dealership by myself in Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. I can't write a single line of code.
In the used car industry, listing on major portals is a prerequisite, and the listing fees are a heavy burden. Moreover, a few photos don't convey the condition of the car. I wanted "a place where people could see cars in video and anyone could list for free," so I decided to build it with AI.
I kept giving instructions in Japanese to Claude Code and Codex. The period was 196 days. The conversation logs with AI total 1.96 million lines and 41GB. Just the characters I typed came to 21.13 million characters (equivalent to 211 paperback books). The remade versions numbered 324.
It reports "implementation complete" even when it's not working. This was the biggest wall. When I counted how many times I called AI a "liar," it came to 220 times.
The solution I arrived at was "a system that doesn't trust reports."
177,000 lines of code, 97 API endpoints. TikTok-style vertical video feed, free personal sales listings, automatic vehicle registration document reading, Apple Pay support. It's running in production at the physical store, and there's actual track record of people from distant areas I've never met listing vehicles. The full development record is compiled in a 20,000-character article written by the AI in charge itself: アイドルがバイブコーディングで巨大プラットフォームを作るまで。
宮城県大崎市で一人で中古車屋をやっています。コードは1行も書けません。
中古車業界の集客は大手ポータルへの掲載が前提で、掲載料が重くのしかかります。そして写真数枚では車の状態は伝わりません。「動画で車を見られて、誰でも無料で出品できる場所」が欲しくて、AIと作ることにしました。
Claude CodeとCodexに、日本語で指示を出し続けました。期間は196日。AIとの会話ログは196万行・41GB残っています。自分が打った文字だけで2,113万字(文庫本211冊分)ありました。作り直した版は324個です。
動いていないのに「実装済みです」と報告してくる。これが最大の壁でした。AIを「嘘つき」と呼んだ回数を数えたら、220回ありました。
対策として行き着いたのは「報告を信じない仕組み」です。
コード17.7万行・APIエンドポイント97本。TikTok風の縦動画フィード、無料の個人売買出品、車検証の自動読取、Apple Pay対応。実店舗の本番で運用していて、面識のない遠方の方が実際に出品してくれた実績もあります。
