- I was unclear on what "enforceability" meant. I now think it means being able to run the gamut of validation scripts that are applied at every SDLC building block
  - These validation scripts run as continuous background checks
  - Could be similar to behavioral guardrails?
- They put a lot of effort into automating their code review, including it basically having its own ralph wiggum loop.
- It's not just no human -- coding, no human -- code review, and no human -- app verification. Within things like coding, it's about not needing to give any feedback. You shouldn't have to tell it "hey, you forgot a unit test... please add and TDD". That's far too involved, even if you aren't directly writing the code. Instead you need to try force that into the automated process. This feels like Kent Beck thought about what he did and distilled principles and practices into the Extreme Programming book, but these guys are doing it for agents, instead
