SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Collaborative coding with enforced micro-steps: announce, show diff, wait for confirmation, apply, verify. User controls pace with commands. Works with any domain agent as the executor.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Announce changes before applying
  • Show diffs prior to applying
  • Wait for user confirmation before each step
  • Apply changes only after user approval
  • Verify changes after each step
  • Supports any domain agent as the executor
  • Step-state and pacing managed by user

Quick Start

Start a pair-programming session by outlining your task and confirming the 5-step workflow with the agent.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce step-by-step confirmation during a pair-programming session?

Pair-programming sessions enforce step-by-step confirmation by announcing changes, showing diffs, waiting for user approval, applying changes, and verifying results. This five-step micro-step protocol ensures incremental changes and full user control over the coding workflow.

What is the best way to review code diffs before an agent applies them?

Reviewing code diffs before application requires a workflow where the executor shows diffs prior to applying changes. The user gates the process by confirming each micro-step, ensuring visibility and preventing unwanted modifications during live coding.

Can I use this micro-step workflow with any domain agent for live coding?

Yes, you can use this micro-step workflow with any domain agent as the executor. It coordinates collaborative coding sessions across programming domains without requiring specific dependencies, ensuring non-autonomous operation and user-controlled pacing.

How does a collaborative coding workflow handle post-step verification?

Collaborative coding workflows handle post-step verification by checking changes after each micro-step is applied. This guarantees visibility and control, confirming the applied code matches the announced diff before proceeding to the next incremental change.

Why should I use micro-steps instead of autonomous code generation during code review?

Micro-steps prevent autonomous code generation from making unreviewed changes by enforcing diff-first disclosure and user confirmation gating. This ensures explicit step-wise control, making it safer for code reviews where visibility and incremental changes are critical.
