@rileybrown@agentnative_ really really good. caught me by surprise this afternoon. didn’t know there was an update until I pushed my chair back and said WOW
Built a “Fable-like” two-brain loop.
Fusion (Opus 4.8 + GPT-5.5 Pro + Gemini 3.1 Pro) plans in a Fable spec voice and verifies. Executes via Codex. Compound-engineering loop: plan → delegate → verify → iterate.
Distilled and fused (ultraplan, fable-prompting, follow-goals, agent-loop) that shape each brain.
Pointed it at a real codebase and it surfaced a product seam I’d missed.
