**From vision to verified impact — an AI-native, fully autonomous software development methodology.**

Provide a human vision statement. The AI autonomously researches, audits your codebase, generates specs and plans, implements, and validates — with **bi-directional verification** at every junction to ensure nothing is missed or invented.
