The primary goal of this project is to build a semi-autonomous agentic system with rich support for human-in-the-loop steering. I believe that I must perfect this foundation before layering on top the “Critic” agents necessary to drive the system autonomously.
For the foundation layer the following capabilities are important to me:
- Full Configurability: The ability to configure every aspect of the end-to-end system, right down to the LLM system prompts.
- Manual Steering: The ability to review code changes incrementally and steer all decisions in a granular “manual mode.”
- Observability: Deep introspection into the system, including the ability to review, edit, and interact with the underlying LLM layer directly.
I believe that a tunable, ground-up system is a necessary stepping stone for building truly autonomous agents on top of that foundation.
