Experiments in Engineering without reading code
summary
A project builds a Coding Agent and a software factory around a Python codebase that is never read, using Claude then Opus 5, an Electron wrapper, Axe accessibility checks, i18n validation, iframe sandboxing and custom critics that auto-review PRs. Writers vibe-code interactives, shipped almost 50 in 2025 and more than 50 so far in 2026, while engineering time per interactive drops from days to hours to minutes. Hyper Review auto-triages, requires CI green, strict typing, WCAG and end to end tests and attaches verification evidence like before/after screenshots.
