For teams scaling agent-written production code

Brief agents before they change governed code.

The requirement that binds this file, whether it conforms today, and its release history.

A durable brief, carried from pre-plan through review to audit.

02The problem

Agents act before anything proves what should govern the work.

They plan, edit, test, and retry before a human sees the diff.

Docs, tickets, tools, and rules can reach them. Availability is not proof the binding requirement shaped the plan.

As agent volume grows, that missing proof becomes the review bottleneck.

Where the requirement livesticket · policy · control · test · incident · deploy history
Where the agent actsplan · tools · edits · tests · retries · memory
Where verification startsdiff · review bot · SAST · CI · approval

Teams can point to separate artifacts: a ticket, a test, a review, a merge.

What they cannot show is a continuous proof trail: the same binding requirement shaping the plan and closed on the merge record.

03Where Idora sits

Idora overlays your stack. It isn't another step in it.

Your agentic SDLC already runs:context · plan · edit · review · scan · ship · log

Idora overlays two moments:

①before planrequirement · conformance · shipped gap
②at review / after shipverifies the change against it · keeps the receipt

Idora never sits in your write path, so it can't block a developer or gate a deploy.

Idora briefs and verifies; your controls decide.

04How it works

One brief. Served before plan, carried into review, kept as a receipt.

Idora closes the loop between what governed the change, what the agent was briefed, what the patch did, and the evidence that remains.

Step 01 · Before the plan
brief:9f3c2a71 · served

Served to the agent

Before the agent plans, Idora briefs the requirement that governs GET /orders/{id}, whether it is met today, and the gap that already shipped.

Step 02 · At review
brief:9f3c2a71 · shown

Shown in the PR

The same brief rides into the PR, so review sees what the agent was told and checks the patch against it.

Step 03 · Kept
receipt:77ab40e9 · kept

Minted as a receipt

What was served is minted as a content-addressed receipt: which brief, when, and to which session.

Did the patch respect the brief?
05The proof

The proof outlives the brief, the PR, and the session.

The verification receipt holds the requirement the agent was briefed and the verdict the patch earned against it, so what governed this change reads back long after the tools move on, instead of getting reconstructed by hand.

Yours to keep, and yours to verify. Anyone can confirm it's genuine with Idora out of the loop, in any tool, for as long as you hold it.

06Start

Get First Briefs for 5–⁠20 governed files.

One repo. Read-only. No agent wiring to start.

For each file, Idora returns the brief your agent should have had: the requirement that governs it, where it traces, and whether the code meets it today. On files where you already know the answer, you'll see in one pass whether Idora's determination is right, including the ones that conform.

Get First Briefs

For you if your agents already change governed code in production. Not yet, if they only autocomplete.

Nothing wired into your agents until the briefs prove out. If they hold up, test against live PRs next.

07Who brings Idora in

Three owners, one gap.

Platform engineeringYou're rolling out agents faster than your requirements, tickets, and deploy history reach the plan.
Security engineeringAgents touch auth, PII, payments, and infra, and you can't prove the relevant control reached the agent before the patch existed.
Compliance / GRCYour records show what each session did, not whether the change met what governed it, so the evidence is reassembled later, after approval.
