good to know, I'll check out beads. I was forced to start using Claude at work and had mixed impressions but once we started using openspec to keep it on rails as you say, it got hard to deny its capabilities.
I find I kind of look at the whole LLM + agentic harness setup as a genetic algorithm. Your tests and specs are the fitness function for the program you're evolving, and the LLM is the mutator. At each step it generates some output, it gets tested against the fitness function, the LLM gets feedback and iterates on it. Eventually something working falls out in the end. The better you can define the selection criteria the more you box the agent in the better results you get.
