Autonomous software maintenance for Hermes · v0.3.0
Diaktoros guides a pull request from issue triage through implementation, independent review, CI, and dispute resolution—without ever taking the final merge away from a human.
Every review and write is bound to the commit it was meant for.
Deterministic gates define what agents may do. The model never does.
Agents can propose, critique, fix, and rule. Only a person merges.
Each turn starts with a fresh sandbox and the exact context it needs. The host owns state, limits, retries, and writes; the agents own judgment inside their lane.
Triage reads an incoming issue, applies only allowed labels, and routes it without touching code.
The fixer implements the requested change, checks it, and publishes through a broker that enforces every boundary.
The reviewer reads the full change, runs relevant checks, and issues one evidence-backed decision.
When the verdict budget is exhausted, the adjudicator resolves the dispute instead of buying another cycle.
Diaktoros keeps the creative work inside disposable sandboxes and the irreversible decisions inside deterministic infrastructure.
A confident answer is not proof. A clean diff is not permission. A model’s intent is not a boundary. The host verifies all three.
Diaktoros maintains itself the way it maintains your repo. The numbers below are read from the repository every time this page loads — not typed by hand.
PR #530: the reviewer blocked on three red CI checks. The fixer traced it to a hand-built test fixture missing a new attribute — a one-line change, production code untouched. The reviewer approved with all six checks green.
The reviewer doesn’t only grade the fixer. It reviewed the maintainer’s own fix in #614 and approved it — the loop grading the hand that built it.
One night’s hunt surfaced 11 real bugs in the loop’s own code; five were fixed by morning. The loop then filed twelve self-audit issues — and keeps closing them.
