Start before the implementation task
AI-built apps often fail before coding: product direction, authority, and scope are still unsettled. Driftbreak resolves those decisions before handing a feature request to an agent.
Spec-driven development
Spec-driven development that survives real implementation.
A spec is useful only when it remains true while repository reality changes. Driftbreak connects product direction, architecture, technical construction, and the operating loop used by coding agents.
The package is living authority
A leader keeps one readable implementation truth, compares the package with actual code, and records what changed rather than treating a static document as magic.
First value before hardening
Make the first meaningful user outcome real with representative input, visible result, and a useful next action. Later infrastructure stays deferred unless a present consequence requires it.
Human and agent roles stay clear
The human owns product and architecture changes. Agents inspect, implement, verify, and bring back material choices instead of silently redesigning the product.
Your app may not need another feature.
It may need one trustworthy definition of what the product is, what should survive, and what your coding agent should build next.
