Deep Work Plan prevents AI agent drift
Deep Work Plan addresses AI coding agent drift by writing a durable, stateful specification directly into the repository. By storing atomic tasks and validation gates on disk, this open-source harness allows any model or agent to resume progress seamlessly after a context reset.
Repo-native planning is a vital evolution for AI software engineering, transforming the codebase itself into the state machine for autonomous execution. Storing agent progress on disk is an elegant solution to the context-window limits and memory loss inherent in standard chat-based interfaces.
* **Stateful and resilient:** Storing execution progress inside the repository means long-running tasks can survive model swaps, token limit resets, or API failures.
* **Vendor-independent:** An open-source, agent-agnostic design prevents lock-in, allowing developers to switch models or frameworks at will.
* **Verifiable outputs:** By replacing trust with structured validation gates, it brings predictable software engineering practices to AI autonomy.
