codetutor

I built an agent harness that doesn’t actually code. I’ve been wanting something that can teach me as I go. Enter codetutor. https://github.com/jaketothepast/codetutor It’s an eMacs package that starts from a spec and will help you iterate on it if you want, and works from a core set of docs about a project plus active specs. It also will keep a treesitter based representation of your codebase to help you form the architecture. It has no write tools, it will read a diff of your code on save to help. It also can be prompted openly. It’s a pair programmer, but the other way around versus traditional agent harnesses. You’re the coder, the AI watches

I built a pair programmer, using AI, but now am trying to go slow with new languages and paradigms using this package. I have noticed a decline in my programming skills, and wondered why I couldn't use AI as a pair programmer. Why can it watch what I'm doing over my shoulder and suggest changes? That way I can struggle through problems still and actually learn something. Results have been good so far :)
