Ota brings execution governance to every software repository through a machine-readable execution contract for humans and AI agents. It replaces scattered setup instructions, execution drift, and AI guesswork with one source of truth for how software should run, verify, and evolve.

Test What Your AI Agents Must Not Do

Ota now supports refusal canaries. Repositories declare tasks that must remain unavailable to agents, and CI verifies that the real execution boundary rejects them with `--expect-refusal`.

In the AI era, governance cannot stop at documenting what agents may do. Teams also need negative tests proving that forbidden execution remains forbidden.

Where does your repo drift most: local, CI, containers, or remote?

A repo can look fine until it is run in a different environment. Native setup, Docker, CI, and remote execution often carry different assumptions, and most teams only discover the mismatch when something breaks.

Ota makes those execution paths explicit so a repo can declare how it should be prepared, verified, and run in each environment.

Where does drift cost your team the most today: local setup, CI, containers, or remote environments?

I'm Bobai, founder of Ota — Ask me anything about making repositories truly ready and safe to run

I built Ota after years of watching the same thing happen: you clone a repo, follow the README, and hit a wall because the project s actual setup changed, while docs and run paths drifted out of sync.

I wanted a reliable way to make the ready-to-run and safe state explicit, not tribal, using an execution contract in `ota.yaml` that humans, CI, and AI agents can use.

So if you want to ask about how Ota works under the hood, how execution contracts are structured, onboarding pain, or where we re taking governed repo execution for AI workflows, I m here.
