Battle-Tested Architectural Patterns for Autonomous AI Agents.
Moving beyond prompt engineering and vibe coding. Practical, first-principles architectures for multi-agent coordination, deterministic Go verification gates, and GitOps workflows.
Harness Over Model: Why Deterministic Tooling Beats Stochastic Prompts
The hard-won lesson of autonomous engineering: LLM intelligence is commoditized, but deterministic Go verification gates and AST invariants make codebases resilient.
NCode: The AST-Constrained Cognitive Substrate for Deterministic Software Engineering
Moving beyond stochastic chat agents: How compiled Go-native state machines, TDD reproducer loops, and AST boundary invariants guarantee reliable autonomous software engineering.
Inner-Loop Test-Driven Development with Autonomous Coding Agents
Why traditional post-hoc testing fails with LLMs, and how test-first phase discipline guarantees functional correctness.
Deterministic Cognitive Scaffolding: Tier 1 Orchestrators vs. Tier 2 Autonomous Swarms
Inverting the control flow: The Go binary runs the core loop, calling the LLM as a bounded cognitive co-processor.
