Deterministic tooling for AI-assisted software delivery.
We build tools that make agent work:
- governed — specs, decisions, and execution live in reviewable artifacts
- traceable — changes can be linked back to why they happened
- phase-aware — implementation, verification, and stability are explicit
- local-first — the CLI and repo remain the control plane
govctl — Governance Harness for AI Coding
govctl is a governance-as-code CLI for teams using AI to build software seriously.
It gives AI-assisted development a control plane in the repository:
- RFCs say what must be true
- ADRs record why a design was chosen
- Work items track execution and acceptance criteria
- Verification guards enforce executable completion gates
Typical flow:
govctl init
govctl status
govctl rfc new "Caching Strategy"
govctl adr new "Choose cache backend"
govctl work new --active "implement caching"Highlights:
- spec-first, phase-gated workflow
- stable CLI contract for humans and agents
- brownfield adoption through the
/migrateworkflow for agent-guided governance onboarding - governed artifact operations through
list,show,get,edit, and lifecycle verbs
skillc — Development Kit for Agent Skills
skillc helps skill authors and power users scaffold, validate, compile, search, and analyze Agent Skills.
Typical flow:
skc init my-skill
skc lint my-skill
skc build my-skill
skc stats my-skillHighlights:
- local authoring and validation
- searchable compiled skill content
- usage analytics and sync
- MCP integration for read-side agent workflows
These are active directions we are exploring, not yet stable public products:
- jjgov — multi-agent collaboration workflows around Jujutsu
- everevolve — project rules inferred and refined from commit history
We believe AI coding gets more useful when it is:
- structured enough to review
- explicit enough to automate
- disciplined enough to scale
The goal is not more ceremony. The goal is to turn fast generation into reliable delivery.
