The operating model

AI agents become useful when they have clear roles and human approval.

Raw, unsupervised AI prompts produce chaos. A multi-agent system with defined roles, boundaries, review gates, and human approval produces software you can trust.

The multi-agent system

Role-based AI. Human decisions.

AI agents become useful when they have clear roles, boundaries, review gates, and human approval. Claude builds, Codex reviews, and Vadim approves — so you get speed without AI chaos.

  • Vadim / Founder

    Final decision maker

    Owns strategy, priorities, and the final approval gate. Nothing is considered done without human sign-off.

  • ChatGPT

    Founder copilot & prompt strategist

    Helps shape ideas, sharpen direction, and structure the prompts that drive the rest of the system.

  • Google Antigravity

    Program manager & knowledge coordinator

    Coordinates issues, tracks repository state, and keeps the project's knowledge organized and current.

  • OpenAI Codex

    Architect, reviewer & validator

    Defines architecture, audits code quality and type safety, and acts as the technical review gate.

  • Claude Code

    Builder & implementer

    Implements components, pages, and fixes against the approved architecture and review feedback.

The review gates protocol

Build, review, approve.

No code is considered done until it passes through review and human approval. This loop runs at every meaningful checkpoint.

  1. 01

    Claude builds

    Claude Code implements components and pages against the approved architecture.

  2. 02

    Codex reviews

    Codex audits type safety, performance, and quality, and returns specific feedback.

  3. 03

    Vadim approves

    The founder reviews the result and gives the final sign-off before anything advances.

Verification standards

Quality is enforced, not assumed.

The standards every build is held to before it can ship.

Type safety

Strict TypeScript and reviewed types across the codebase.

Code review gates

Claude builds, Codex reviews, Vadim approves before anything is considered done.

Clean, owned code

Readable Next.js and Tailwind you can hand to any engineer later.

No AI free-for-all

Agents operate inside clear roles and boundaries, not unsupervised autonomy.
