Bringing determinism to AI coding.
AI coding assistants are powerful — but they lack discipline:
- No structure — changes happen anywhere, anytime, in any order
- No traceability — "why was this changed?" gets lost in conversation history
- No gates — nothing stops half-baked code from reaching production
- No coordination — multiple agents step on each other's work
The result? Fast but fragile. Productive but unpredictable.
We build tools that enforce structure, traceability, and phase discipline on AI-assisted development workflows.
Every change flows through a governed lifecycle:
┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐
│ SPEC │ ──▶ │ IMPL │ ──▶ │ TEST │ ──▶ │ STABLE │
│ Document │ │ Build │ │ Verify │ │ Ship │
└──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘
No shortcuts. No chaos. Just determinism.
🔧 govctl — Governance CLI
Opinionated CLI for RFC-driven development. Enforces phase gates, tracks decisions, and keeps AI agents in line.
govctl rfc new "Add user authentication" # Create RFC
govctl work start RFC-001 # Begin implementation
govctl gate check # Validate before advancing
govctl phase advance # Move to next phase⚡ skillc — Skill Compiler
Development kit for Agent Skills. Scaffold, lint, compile, and analyze skills for AI coding assistants.
skc init my-skill # Scaffold new skill
skc lint # Validate structure
skc build # Compile for distribution
skc stats # Analyze usage patternsjj-based workflow for coordinating multiple AI agents working on the same codebase. Parallel branches, clean merges, no conflicts.
Automatically generate and evolve project rules from commit history. Your codebase teaches the AI how to contribute.
"Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships."
We believe:
- Constraints enable creativity — structure doesn't slow you down, chaos does
- Decisions should be traceable — every "why" deserves a documented answer
- AI needs guardrails — powerful tools require disciplined processes
- Phase gates work — they've worked in engineering for decades
