Why PAUL
I build with Claude Code every day. It's incredibly powerful — when you give it the right context.
The problem? **Context rot.** As your session fills up, quality degrades. Subagents spawn with fresh context but return ~70% quality work that needs cleanup. Plans get created but never closed. State drifts. You end up debugging AI output instead of shipping features.
PAUL fixes this with three principles:
**Loop integrity** — Every plan closes with UNIFY. No orphan plans. UNIFY reconciles what was planned vs what happened, updates state, logs decisions. This is the heartbeat.
**In-session context** — Subagents are expensive and produce lower quality for implementation work. PAUL keeps development in-session with properly managed context. Subagents are reserved for discovery and research — their job IS to gather context.
**Acceptance-driven development** — Acceptance criteria are first-class citizens, not afterthoughts. Define done before starting. Every task references its AC. BDD format: `Given [precondition] / When [action] / Then [outcome]`.
