One ticket.
A better way to work.

Bring a piece of work that keeps getting stuck. Sit down with your team. Learn to specify it, build it, check it, and share what helped.

Coaching with our team · Preparation + four working weeks

On the desk today

“Invite a colleague to a workspace.”

A small ticket with real decisions: who can invite, what happens on a retry, and how to check the workspace boundary.

Follow the worked examples →

Before generation

Agree these first.

  • Only a workspace administrator can invite.
  • A retry must not create another invitation.
  • Test access from a different workspace.

One ticket. Four working documents.

Public chapters. Practice with a coach.

Read and use every chapter freely. A coached cohort adds working sessions, feedback on your artifacts, help with obstacles, and phase reviews. Start with a pair of engineers, product and quality partners, and a sponsor who protects their time.

The suggested sequence is preparation followed by four working weeks. Agree the schedule with your coach; demonstrate readiness before progressing. Reading a page does not complete a phase.

The program at a glance

One shared practice. Five phases.

  1. Phase 0 · Suggested week 0

    Prepare

    Pod, backlog, access, baselines, tools, and structure.

    Explore phase
  2. Phase 1 · Suggested week 1

    Execute

    Agree the design together before generating a change.

    Explore phase
  3. Phase 2 · Suggested week 2

    Guardrails

    Keep changes reviewable and run the quality gates.

    Explore phase
  4. Phase 3 · Suggested week 3

    Trust

    Use AI to understand, explain, and debug the code.

    Explore phase
  5. Phase 4 · Suggested week 4

    Scale

    Transfer the playbook with coaches and rollout waves.

    Explore phase
Follow a flexible coached cadence: weeks 0–4 are a suggested rhythm, not a guaranteed completion schedule. Guardrails and Trust can be combined with your coach when the pod is ready.

How performance builds, step by step

Remove waiting, reduce rework, make review repeatable, build shared understanding, then transfer the practice. Track accepted delivery and quality against your starting baseline at every step.

  1. Phase 0 · Prepare

    Remove the friction before the work begins.

  2. Phase 1 · Execute

    Spend less time on avoidable rework.

  3. Phase 2 · Guardrails

    Turn faster generation into accepted delivery.

  4. Phase 3 · Trust

    Investigate faster. Keep ownership.

  5. Phase 4 · Scale

    Grow the gain across more teams.

Bring the measured results into the organization-wide rollout model: 5 trained by Month 1, 30 trained by Month 2, 50 trained by Month 3, with 30% gain per trained engineer.

Your path through the program

Welcome + five phases + outcomes
  1. Welcome

    Get started: Write your starting note

    Name one friction, one ticket, and the people who can help.

    Open chapter →
  2. Phase 0

    Prepare: Create the conditions to begin

    Agree the scope, verify access, and establish your baseline.

    Open chapter →
  3. Phase 1

    Execute: Turn intent into accepted work

    Specify, generate, inspect, and validate a bounded change.

    Open chapter →
  4. Phase 2

    Guardrails: Put the toolkit to work

    Use shared skills, real checks, and a Proof scorecard.

    Open chapter →
  5. Phase 3

    Trust: Investigate unfamiliar behavior

    Trace source evidence, test a hypothesis, and teach it back.

    Open chapter →
  6. Phase 4

    Scale: Transfer the practice

    Coach a receiving pod and evaluate the next rollout wave.

    Open chapter →
  7. Wrap-up

    Outcomes: Plan the next wave

    Bring the practice together and explore a 50-engineer value example.

A closer look

The work changes. So does the team.

Engineers spend more time agreeing intent, checking behavior, and helping another pod repeat the practice. Product, QA, and coaching make that possible.

Take the first small step

Name a real engineering friction and the people who could investigate it. The welcome chapter turns that into a starting note for your team or coached kickoff.
