Agents can dramatically accelerate software development but acceleration in the wrong direction can be worse than no acceleration at all. I believe the key to keeping agents focused on the right tasks will be higher quality, more personalized instructions.

But how am I supposed to know if my instructions are helping or hurting? What I needed was something like stacktraces for natural language - a way to see exactly how my instructions are being interpreted, where they're failing, and why.

Unfortunately, most tools treat custom rules as a black box. You input instructions and hope for the best, with no visibility into what's actually happening.

I based the algorithm on techniques from model self-evaluation research so that the LLM reads through my chat history and its suggestions are grounded in how the custom rules are being used.

It's still very much in beta, but I'm really excited about the flywheel effect this creates: each agent interaction informs better rules, and a growing library of personalized rules creates a faster, more effective coding assistant.
