Hi HN! I built this after watching AI assistants confidently ship mocked data, break working contracts, and create the illusion of progress for hours.
The core insight: AI sessions fail not from bad models, but from missing structure. The DRS (Deployability Rating Score) gives you a single number (0-100) that answers "can I actually ship this?"
Key components:
* Contract freezing (no silent interface changes)
* Mock expiration (30-minute max)
* Scope limits (5 files, 200 LOC)
* Time-based convergence gatesIt's MIT licensed.
Curious what patterns you've seen in your AI coding sessions.
