Spent the entire day building `tenet`: The review gate for code that agents write: rules in plain language, judged on every commit
Your AGENTS.md says what a comment is for and that a failure is raised rather than hidden; agents break those rules anyway, and nobody reads every line of a large diff. You write each tenet once in plain language in tenet.yml and every commit is judged against it, fast enough that the agent fixes its own findings before you see the diff.

Still in early stages, but I think this could be a great use case for Jev 🙂 Open for feedback!
