Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A tool for putting coding agents under a user-written Collective Bargaining Agreement, with a steward intended to stop work when a session’s quality starts to slip.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-22 issue.
For
Developers running long sessions with coding agents
Worth noticing
The page says steward checks take about 65 ms and fail open, so a broken union should not block work.

Field notes

The page attributes session problems to context limits, fading early instructions, and small errors accumulating over long runs. Its listed defaults warn at 70% context use and strike at 85%, with a suggestion to lower those thresholds for million-token windows. These are described settings and behaviors; the extract does not demonstrate them running.
