Show HN: A deterministic governance harness for agentic development loops A developer has released a proof-of-concept for a deterministic governance harness that validates LLM-generated code against policies, aiming to increase confidence in autonomous code generation. The system uses hooks to enforce rules, such as ensuring a button is blue, by checking the output against specified policies. I genuinely think that autonomous code generation is the future. But today we are facing a problem: we cannot be confident enough in the result produced by an LLM. The problem is its way of working. Even with strong directive such as “make a button blue”, we cannot be sure that the button will be blue maybe the context has contradictory informations . This POC is based on hooks and is validating that a deterministic generic harness is possible. For example, you may distribute a skill saying that a button must be blue, with a policy that checks that the button is blue. Thanks to this, the system will apply the policy and check the button’s color.
