HAL-SDLC
The Heuristic AI Lifecycle for software development. Describe intent in plain language — HAL plans, orchestrates specialized agents, reviews adversarially, and ships with a full audit trail. Deployed privately, inside your environment.
How it works
- 1
Plan
One sentence of intent becomes a structured pack: index, sub-tasks, architecture notes, acceptance criteria, and a dependency graph.
- 2
Validate
Structural gates score the plan before anyone writes code. Plan-level bugs are fixed where they're cheapest.
- 3
Execute
Agents implement in parallel by phase — engineers, reviewers, and planners each with a defined role.
- 4
Review
Independent reviewers with 10 personas score every deliverable with severity and confidence. Bounded autofix handles the small stuff.
- 5
Ship
Conventional commits, pull requests, and a complete decision log — ready for human approval.
- 6
Compound
Learnings are captured into the knowledge layer so the next cycle starts smarter.
What sets it apart
Plans your team can review
Every build starts from a specification with explicit acceptance criteria and evidence — not from a chat transcript.
Multi-agent orchestration
Dependency-aware phases assign work to specialized agents and keep them coordinated.
Adversarial review
Architecture, security, performance, and adversarial personas review independently. Findings carry severity and confidence.
Three-layer knowledge
Your documents, distilled and compiled into an interlinked wiki that agents query before they build.
Solo and full modes
Lightweight flow for single-developer tasks; full orchestration for multi-service work. Same quality bar.
Privacy by default
Runs in your environment. Sensitive names and terms are redacted from generated artifacts automatically.
Who it's for
Engineering leaders
Scale delivery with governance, standards, and visibility built in.
Platform & DevEx teams
Give every developer the same context, conventions, and quality gates.
Regulated industries
Traceability from requirement to commit satisfies audit and compliance needs.
Delivery & licensing
HAL-SDLC is licensed privately to organizations and deployed within your own infrastructure. Commercial terms, support tiers, and update cadence are defined per agreement.
- Private distribution — tagged releases or checksummed archives
- Works with Cursor and MCP-compatible tooling
- Installation, onboarding, and support included per tier
- Optional customization of templates, skills, and review personas
Frequently asked
Does HAL replace our developers?+
No. HAL removes boilerplate and coordination overhead so developers spend their time on judgment, architecture, and review. A human approves every pull request.
Which languages and stacks are supported?+
HAL is stack-agnostic at the planning and review level and ships templates for TypeScript, Python, and common web and service architectures. Additional stacks are added through templates and distillations.
Where does our code go?+
Nowhere. HAL runs inside your environment and connects to the model providers you approve. Generated artifacts stay in your repositories.
How do we start?+
A short pilot on a real backlog item: we install HAL, plan and execute together, and measure cycle time and review quality against your baseline.
