It refactored things I didn't ask it to refactor. It made "helpful" assumptions that broke my architecture. So I built Full Stack HQ — a configuration kit that enforces a permission-first workflow.

The result is an agent that: Makes assumptions about what you want Takes irreversible actions without asking Mixes planning and execution in the same step Has no consistent code style or architectural awareness The agent is powerful but unpredictable. That's the worst combination in software development. The solution: permission-first workflow Nothing happens without your explicit approval.
