What people are saying Observed
“I'm assuming these QA agent are automated, probably in CI/CD. And I'm assuming the prompt that runs these QA agents is from a codebase in VC. Why would I put QA instructions into the codebase's repo as a top level markdown file and not in the pertinent part of my QA process? Even with your documentation, the llm is gonna do a lot of that grepping and discovery. Unless you have such comprehensive documentation that it's basically code itself... in which case, it should just use the code as documentation. The good news is that I don't think what you guys are doing is going to be really bad. It's just not near optimal and it's creating this weird dogma around all these "tools"”
