MANIFEST · RDS COSTA RICA

Writing code is just
one of six stages.

Your team already writes code fast. The problem is everything else — clarifying, defining, testing, delivering with evidence — and nobody measures it. MANIFEST turns that invisible work into a process with two mandatory human sign-offs.

How MANIFEST works

HOW IT WORKS

A ticket goes in. A reviewed Pull Request comes out.

And when the system needs a human decision, it says so. It doesn't write code faster: it handles everything around the code, which is where the team's time actually goes.

HALF THE SYSTEM DISTRUSTS THE OTHER HALF

No gate can write to your repo.

Six quality checks genuinely confirm the code builds, the tests pass, and what the frontend expects matches what the backend actually returns. Only a green report opens the Pull Request — and that's enforced by tooling, not by an instruction.

REVIEWED BEFORE IT'S BUILT

You don't approve code. You approve the spec.

Every specification in a batch gets reviewed together before anyone approves them one by one, catching what a solo review misses. Approve, request changes, or return with comments: the call is always yours.

TWO HUMAN SIGN-OFFS

You sign off on testing. With real evidence.

Whoever built it tests it first. Then QA confirms exactly what got marked as tested — without that, there's no way to sign off. When a ticket closes, the system writes the 'how to test this' guide, with the real path that got built.

MANIFEST

An assembly line, not an assistant.

21 AI specialists, each with one specific task, coordinated by a director that keeps track of the whole process. Nothing moves forward without passing its review.

No hallucinations

Before writing a single line, it confirms what it's about to touch actually exists in your system — and stops if it isn't sure, instead of making something up.

QA that really runs

Runs real tests against every acceptance criterion in the request — not a surface-level check that 'it looks right'.

Frontend and backend, in sync

Catches when one part of the system returns something different from what the other expects — before that error reaches production.

Two human sign-offs

You approve the specification and sign off on testing. Neither can be skipped from the screen.

Per-ticket metrics

Duration, usage and real cost for every task — so you quote with evidence, not intuition.

Automatic budget brake

Before starting and before every ticket, it checks how much quota is left. If it's exceeded, it pauses cleanly and explains why.

THE PILOT

Two weeks, measured against your own history.

This is the pilot: not a demo — a real sprint from your own team, closely supported during week one.

  1. Day 1

    Installation and onboarding on your own repository. The system learns the rules and patterns your team already uses, instead of inventing its own.

  2. Day 2

    A real sprint from your team, split into groups of 3 to 6 tasks. Specifications get approved together.

  3. Week 1

    Supported runs — your team watches every quality check in action before letting it work unattended.

  4. Week 2

    Works alone overnight, reviewed the following morning. The budget brake keeps it in check the whole time.

  5. Wrap-up

    Tasks delivered, timing, cost and defects found — measured against your own history, not a generic average.

What we ask for: a repo and a technical counterpart, a real sprint (not an exercise), and two hours on the calendar. What we won't promise: a savings percentage, zero defects, or that it works without anyone reviewing.

NO NEW INFRASTRUCTURE

What it needs from you.

No new infrastructure to stand up — it installs on top of what your team already uses.

The questions people always ask.

No spin — including what MANIFEST doesn't do yet.

Does it replace my team?

No. It drafts, proposes and asks questions — a person still decides what gets built and in what order. Two human gates (approving the spec, signing off on tests) can't be skipped from the screen.

Does it guarantee zero defects?

No, and no one on our team will ever promise that. It removes whole classes of error and makes them visible: what it does guarantee is that no ticket reaches review without tests that actually ran.

Does it run in the cloud?

Today it runs on each person's own machine — the client's code never leaves it. The server plan is already written and budgeted; it ships in a later phase.

Does it learn my repo automatically?

Not by magic. It reads the conventions your team already wrote down; on a repo with history, those need to be surfaced first — that's the one-time 'census' onboarding step.

What do I need to get started?

Node 18 or newer, git, the engine's CLI, and your Pull Request tool. The panel itself has no dependencies of its own to install.

How is it priced?

Three structures: license (per install or per seat), implementation (license + guided adoption), or managed delivery (you don't buy the tool, you buy finished tickets). Pricing is set in the proposal, after the pilot.
