Show HN: WTF > Auto-check what your coding agent changed

wTF is my attempt to understand all the development that my agents are doing all the time without getting splitting headaches and standing a chance of reading a couple of pages in any given book by the end of day. It gives me an overview of what actually happened.

It's also in early experimentation to see if it can help ground the agents in actual reality. Not there yet, though.

Free, open source, no API, 100% local.

My breaking point was working between two different LLMs, completely disconnected, and the coding agent was passing all the tests, and the more strategic agent started questioning reality. To mitigate that, I realized I could do something more deterministic that had nothing to do with AI. And it's helped me so far.

The way I use it is that when anything is changed by the coding agent, it is required to create the WTF report as the last step.
