The Quoth Manifesto

The principles that guide our approach to AI-assisted development and documentation integrity.

"Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore' shall your AI hallucinate, guess, or contradict your documented architecture. We bring wisdom where there was guesswork, certainty where there was chaos."

Documentation as Law

In the Quoth paradigm, documentation isn't a suggestion—it's legislation. Every pattern file in your knowledge base becomes a binding contract that AI agents must respect and enforce.

"If it's not documented, it doesn't exist. If it is documented, it must be obeyed."

No More Hallucinations

AI models hallucinate when they lack authoritative sources. Quoth provides that authority—a curated, versioned knowledge base that serves as the single source of truth for your codebase.

"We don't guess. We don't assume. We read, contrast, and verify."

The Read-Contrast-Update Loop

Documentation dies the moment it's written—unless there's a system to keep it alive. Quoth enforces a continuous loop: read the docs, contrast with reality, propose updates when drift is detected.

"Stale documentation is worse than no documentation. We keep it breathing."

Transparent Reasoning

Every suggestion Quoth makes comes with a citation. You'll always know which document, which pattern, which rule led to a specific recommendation. No black boxes.

"Show your work. Always cite your sources. Let humans verify."

The Bottom Line

Quoth exists because we believe AI should enhance human expertise, not replace it. By providing AI agents with authoritative documentation and enforcing compliance, we create a symbiotic relationship where humans define the rules and AI follows them precisely.
