The real trick, in my experience, is to design your software with things like bounded queues or ring buffers, and to avoid manual memory management (new/delete). This works in C++ just as well as GC'ed languages.
One of my favorite consequences of LLM-heavy workflows (vibe-coding "make me a CRUD app"-style prompts aside) is that prompting the LLM forces the user to put at least a modicum of thought into how the software is actually architected.
