Good shout, there's definitely overlap. Beads looks like it's solving the task planning and dependency tracking side very well.
What I ended up building is more about ground truth state. It doesn't track tasks, it tracks what actually happened: which commit we're on, what tests passed, which patches failed, whether the different machines used are in sync. So when a new session starts with a completely different agent, it doesn't have to trust anyone's memory, it just reads the ledger.
Probably complementary honestly. Both would potentiallybe ideal if you're running multi-agent across machines.
I'm working in a codebase of 200+ "microservices", separate repos, each deployed as multiple FaaS, CQRS-style. None of it my choice, everything precedes me, many repos I know nothing of.
Little to no code re-use between them.
Any trace of "business logic" is so distributed in multiple repos, that I have no possible use of LLM codegen, unless I can somehow feed it ALL the codebase.
I've tried generating some tests, but they always miss the mark, as in the system under test is almost always the wrong one.
I guess LLM are cool for greenfield, but when the brownfield is really brown, there's no use for LLMs.
All those you mentioned are somewhat physical and not that simple across the borders. Practically speaking you will never get universal laws across all nations, otherwise financial havens wouldn’t exist either.
I was making a point that whether you graduate or not has little correlation with your capacity of handling higher abstractions and complexity, because neither bootcampers nor engineering graduates have the experience of building complex systems, let alone under time, tech leadership and management pressure.
It is likely that the original authors may have found themselves in a situation where they were tasked to build a trivial form with technologies they were not accustomed to at the request of some superior and they ended writing a soup.
The one major issue is that it doesn’t work inside other apps. If I save something in Word, it pops up the standard File dialog and every storage provider available for my iOS device - Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, iCloud Drive, local storage, network drives, and locally connected mass storage devices are available.
