Learn, teach and transfer the approach

Use these routes to explain the system without reading its implementation. The material separates what GuardKit currently does from practices a new team could adopt.

A 20-minute introduction

  1. Read the two workflows.
  2. Use the C4 context view in factory architecture to explain the people and systems.
  3. Follow one feature through the delivery flow.
  4. Finish with current limitations, so a working demonstration is not mistaken for a general reliability claim.

The central idea: a coding agent produces changes; a delivery system must also decide what to build, check it, preserve review identity and report what happened.

An engineering walkthrough

Read AutoBuild, project readiness and the lessons. Trace one requirement through the task, Player output, independent check, candidate, approval and publication result. Ask where an incorrect implementation would be rejected and how to demonstrate that rejection.

A team pathfinder

Start with the pathfinder playbook, then copy the field kit into the team's own repository. Pick one real, bounded journey and a named receiving engineer. Transfer the method before choosing whether the organisation needs the same software or deployment topology.

A presentation or YouTube series

The presentation kit contains a slide narrative, episode briefs, diagram choices and demonstration boundaries. Pair each claim with a source or a labelled proposal. Use the industry comparison to show where other teams have documented stronger practices.

Vocabulary for mixed audiences

Term Meaning here
Coding harness The environment that gives a model instructions, tools and execution controls
Agent A model-driven role acting through those tools; it need not be a separate service
AutoBuild GuardKit's bounded implementation and review loop
Player The role that changes the product code
Coach The role that assesses the result using supplied and independently gathered evidence
Forge The factory workflow service, including planning and delivery control
Jarvis The conversation interface; routine factory intake follows deterministic routing
Candidate A particular Git revision proposed for review and delivery
Gate A decision that can stop progression; a report that cannot stop it is not a blocking gate
Receipt A recorded result tied to an operation and its source identity
Pathfinder A bounded introduction that leaves another team able to repeat and evaluate the method
