This is an interesting approach. I like the idea of describing a strategy in natural language instead of wiring everything together manually. How do you handle ambiguity when a prompt could be interpreted in multiple ways?

From what I've seen, you have to answer x amount of questions, based on your original request to avoid ambiguity. Your responses also matter, it's not simply based on 4 questions = being able to "go live", if it still lacks context after the 4th prompt, it will explicitly tell you that it needs a better idea of what's necessary to actually be built.
I do agree though, after 3 generally basic natural language prompts, I wouldn't trust it enough to handle my finances.
That being said, there are also legal implications that I'm sure this project would have to deal with before gaining any type of userbase.
Hey, co-founder of Halcyon here. Thanks for your feedback!
Our plan is for the AI agent to create an initial iteration of the bot, but make its logic visible and tweakable without seeing or touching a single line of code. That way, you can correct for any inaccuracies in its first pass.
We'd love to hear more of what you'd like to see from Halcyon! We're happy to chat over video as well: https://calendly.com/sean-gong/halcyon-founding-users-x-foun...
