I do this a lot. Start by telling the AI to just listen and only provide feedback when asked. Lay out your current line of thinking conversationally. Periodically ask the AI to summarize/organize your thoughts "so far". Tactically ask for research into a decision or topic you aren't sure about and then make a decision inline.
Then once I feel like I have addressed all the areas, I ask for a "critical" review, which usually pokes holes in something that I need to fix. Finally have the AI draft up a document (Though you have to generally tell it to be as concise and clear as possible).
I usually create a document/folder with my thinking on what I want to do, any background information that is relevant, conversations on the topic, technical manuals, links etc. Then enter a conversation and explore the problem space and do something very similar to what you are doing.
