Runtime Feedback Guides

Long-form guides on shipping AI-generated code you can trust: the case for a runtime feedback loop, and the wiring to build one. Written for the people doing the work, refreshed as the data changes.

For engineering leaders

How to Trust What Your Agents Ship

Why AI-generated code fails in production after passing every pre-deploy gate, what your runtime platforms can’t tell you, and the four-stage architecture (distill, enrich, explain, remember) that closes the runtime feedback loop. Grounded in the 2026 survey data on the AI code trust wall.

What Production Teaches Your Agents

Runtime feedback as an improvement engine: how production signal informs test coverage, feature priority, and the next prompt, and how a knowledge graph of every triage compounds into team-level velocity.
