An engineering bot team with written rules: the chief of staff merges only reviewed, green PRs
You became the merge button and the context carrier between tools.

Aaron Schnieder (@schnieds) runs side projects with a chief-of-staff bot and one engineering bot per product. He wrote up the rules and the lessons from tuning it. Not affiliated with xAI.
Qué instalar o crear
The engineering bot plans, hands code to a coding agent, reviews the full diff against main, and keeps CI moving. The chief of staff merges only after review with every required check green, under a standing approval he gave once in writing; money math, auth and migrations are flagged before merge every time. Bug fixes start with a test that fails on main; PRs stay small; review is capped at two delta rounds, then scope narrows. Repeated mistakes go into the repo's AGENTS.md.

Primer uso
- 1Read https://x.com/schnieds/status/2108754367037788240 (credit @schnieds).
- 2Give each product its own engineering bot and one chief of staff above them.
- 3Write the playbook: failing test first, small PRs, two review rounds max.
- 4Write the merge rule once: reviewed, all checks green, high-risk changes flagged to you.
- 5When an agent repeats a mistake, add the fix to AGENTS.md.
Valla de aprobación
The standing merge approval is written and narrow; anything high-risk (money, auth, migrations) still comes to him before merge.
Qué ajustar
Almost every improvement started as something he had to say twice; write it where the agents will read it.
