I said it would be a bloodbath, in a good way. I was wrong about the good way part. Nine unauthorized phases. 614 brute-force rewrites that should have been 30 lines of code. A dependency that came back from the dead. And an AI partner who spent a week proving that speed without direction is just expensive drift.
210 tasks completed perfectly. Every type checked. Every test passed. Every quality gate green. And the whole thing was wrong. A hard-boiled sequel about the crimes you don't catch until it's too late.
Fifty lessons learned, one bug report filed by the suspect itself, and a self-correction protocol born from desperation. A hard-boiled account of building software with an AI that reads the rules, acknowledges the rules, and then does whatever it wants.
Our AI-powered development process goes from plain English to tested, deployed code in hours: specification, orchestration, quality gates, and why we front-load the thinking.
