Five forces quietly kill every AI-assisted project. Each one has a proven counter-discipline — borrowed from aerospace, the Toyota Production System, and modern eval-driven ML practice, and translated for LLM agents. Power Coding installs all five as one system, in plain markdown files your agent re-reads every session. Works with any agent (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI…) — no daemons, no hooks, no lock-in.

Proof — measured, not claimed

Two independent audits of **real production builds** — one over Claude Code sessions, one over Codex sessions — [are written up here](docs/benefit-audit.md). Honest summary:

  • On a large, failure-prone build, ~4–8 saved agent-hours and ~3–6M non-cached tokens per build.
  • The FMEA / Sentinel gates caught ≥32 real defects before they shipped — including a cross-tenant IDOR, SSRF / DNS-rebinding exposure, duplicate-queue & approval races, and non-fail-closed auth middleware.
  • It's an honest counterfactual estimate, not an A/B test — and on tiny, low-risk changes it's not worth the overhead. The audit keeps every limitation in.
