Rosetta

Engineering governance and context for AI coding agents — the knowledge a senior engineer would have, compiled into every agent.

What is Rosetta

AI coding agents are great — until you try to use them across a real team. Everyone builds their own prompts and rules, knowledge stays in silos, and the agent — not knowing your architecture or constraints — guesses from a few open files and confidently does the wrong thing.

That's why we built Rosetta — an open-source governance and context layer for AI coding agents. It's not another proprietary agent; it works with the tools you already use (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.) and compiles one centralized source of your team's engineering knowledge into every agent, every session. Everything is versioned in Git and runs inside your perimeter.

Teach agents how to think, not what to do. The model already knows Python and React; what it lacks is your engineering discipline. That's what Rosetta encodes.

What this means in daily work:

• Learns your codebase first — reads your architecture and conventions, so it stops guessing from a few open files.
• Just type a slash command and describe the task naturally — no prompt scaffolding, no new syntax to memorize.
• Batteries included — ready-made flows for coding, testing, analysis, AQA, research, and more.
• Routine to the agent, judgment to you — you spend your time where it actually matters.
• Asks first, plans, codes, then validates — clarifies, shows a plan, then proves it ran.
• Less babysitting — fewer wrong turns to catch and re-prompt.
• Your agent, your IDE, your stack — works with the tools you already use, no migration.

Rosetta-guided work follows these phases:

• Prepare (load guardrails and context)
• Research (search the knowledge base)
• Plan (produce a reviewable plan)
• Act (execute with full context)
• Validate (manual validation by AI)

[!NOTE] If you are effectively using your current setup, writing your own skills, and managing AI using your own processes, you probably don't need Rosetta.
