Hey people of the world, another tech guy trying new things from a new perspective.

Hey guys,

I'm Nabil. Bit of a tech polymath love software, love hardware, love the whole stack, pivoting to hardware soon.

One thing I've always been into: reading software engineering laws the actual principles behind good architecture and figuring out how to bake them into real code instead of just nodding at them in a blog post. So I built my own tool for that(it was a personal tool).

Then I did something I didn't expect to work: I injected those rules straight into an AI coding agent. Turns out that's the missing piece. The agent stopped guessing and started writing code that actually matched how a production-scale app should be structured not just code that runs, but code that's easy to update, easy to hand off, easy to live with six months later.
