The goal is to make every agent run bounded, inspectable, and test-verifiable.</p> <p>The first version focuses on:</p> <ul> <li>hard budget caps</li> <li>JSONL run records</li> <li>audit trails</li> <li>failure classification</li> <li>test-verified completion</li> <li>reproducible agent runs</li> </ul> <p>The thesis is simple:</p> <p>The next layer of AI coding is not only better prompts.</p> <p>It is governance.</p> <p>Before agents touch serious repos, teams need receipts:</p> <ul> <li>what the agent tried</li> <li>what it changed</li> <li>how much it spent</li> <li>what commands it ran</li> <li>what tests passed</li> <li>what failed</li> <li>why it stopped</li> <li>whether a human can resume, revert, or rerun it</li> </ul> <p>I’m looking for feedback from developers using Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Devin-style agents, or custom coding agents in real repos.</p> <p>What would you want in the default “agent receipt”?</p> <p>GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/Keesan12/Martin-Loop" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/Keesan12/Martin-Loop</a><br> Site: <a href="https://martinloop.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://martinloop.com</a></p> ai opensource devops programming keesan.eth Tue, 30 Aug 2022 19:57:03 +0000 https://dev.to/cryptokeesan/come-build-on-concordium-2jgh https://dev.to/cryptokeesan/come-build-on-concordium-2jgh <p>Concordium Blockchain is the only public blockchain with a privacy based ID-layer at the protocol level built using RUST.
