Use coding agents without losing the engineering thread: write precise tasks, constrain changes, inspect diffs, test risk, and retain authorship.

Check a mission only after the proof exists. Progress stays in this browser and also appears in the Modern Skills catalog.
Turn a feature request into scope, invariants, interfaces, acceptance checks, and explicit non-goals before prompting.
Proof: A task brief another engineer can execute without guessing.Ask for one vertical slice, preserve unrelated code, and require the agent to explain every touched file.
Proof: A focused diff with a file-by-file rationale.Inspect the diff for boundary, security, concurrency, and failure-state risks, then add targeted tests.
Proof: At least three risk-derived tests including one caught defect.Reproduce the behavior, remove unnecessary complexity, record rejected suggestions, and explain the final design unaided.
Proof: A review summary and independent five-minute walkthrough.The free path remains yours. Founding access helps shape future mock interviews, review rubrics, and portfolio verification.
