I've read several comments in the last few months citing this kind of approach. What I'm trying to do is to make the implementation phase more reliable. By the way, if you're not d…

Yes, like many others I've been experimenting a lot. What I've got so far is a harness-of-harnesses - ie, a harness which sits on top of Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode. I still use…

No, we shouldn't act like (stupid) children. We should enact a transition based on what we can do and when. I know that nuanced and complex solutions to complex problems don't fire…
