Scoped, auditable coding agent — small tools, explicit plans, reviewable steps.
Role · Lead engineer
Overview
A scoped coding agent built around small, composable tools and explicit task plans — designed to be reviewed, not trusted blindly.
Problem
Most coding agents are opaque, unbounded, and unreviewable. They don't fit the way real engineers work.
Solution
An agent with hard tool boundaries, persistent plans, and a UI that exposes every step before it runs.
Tech stack
- TypeScript
- Node.js
- LLM tool use

Engineering notes
What's shaping this build.
Design goals, philosophy, planned architecture, and where the project stands today. No fabricated benchmarks — only what's actually driving decisions.
Design goals
- Every action reviewable before execution.
- Small, single-purpose tools rather than a mega-tool.
- Persistent plans that survive across sessions.
Philosophy
Agents should widen the engineer's leverage, not replace their judgment. The UI is the safety layer.
Planned architecture
TypeScript agent runtime; small typed tools; plans persisted as inspectable artifacts; a UI layer that gates side-effecting steps behind explicit confirmation.
Current stage
Tool contract and plan format under design.
