Without brakes, a software factory becomes a slop cannon. — paraphrasing [Matt Pocock, *Fixing the PR Bottleneck*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlgiOCmFG_w)
Coding agents write code faster than anyone can review it. They also write **tests that pass forever and catch nothing**, reach into modules they shouldn't, and hand you a pile of PRs that all look equally safe to merge.
**Slopbrake** installs the brakes. Every change an agent makes goes through the same three layers. Every review comment that keeps coming back becomes a check that runs before the next change.
