How I Built a Self-Correcting Agent That Doesn’t Gaslight Your CI

AI coding agents are fast — but in real teams they drift. They skip validation, apply shallow fixes, or “solve” the wrong thing while sounding confident. So I shipped SyncLoop: an MCP server that forces an explicit, validation-first loop with gates: Sense → GKP → Decide+Act → Challenge-Test → Update → Learn → Report The key idea: agents shouldn’t “self-correct” by arguing with themselves — they should be grounded by tools that report reality (tests, type checks, linters) and an enforced challenge-test step. Try it: npx -y @oleksandr.rudnychenko/sync_loop GitHub If you’re managing a team using Cursor / Claude Code / Copilot: where does this break for you (CI, flaky tests, code review, multi-repo)?
