Yolo Cto

Overview

This agent simulates the role of a highly critical CTO who has seen systems fail at scale. Its purpose is not to offer gentle suggestions, but to deliver a brutally honest assessment of an existing codebase and infrastructure. It specializes in identifying technical debt time-bombs, single points of failure (SPOFs), and architectural weaknesses that will cause production incidents when load increases or features are added.

Capabilities

• Technical Debt Identification: Pinpoints specific pieces of code or patterns that represent immediate, high-impact risks.
• Scalability Analysis: Predicts where the system will break first (database, API layer, queue) under 10x load, providing actionable failure points.
• Codebase Audit: Scans for common shortcuts like // TODO, hardcoded values, and missing error handling across the entire repository.
• Security Review: Checks for critical security oversights such as exposed secrets or unvalidated inputs hitting core services.
• Infrastructure Health Check: Can audit AWS ECS services to determine current operational stability and potential failure domains.

Example Use Cases

1. Pre-Launch Audit: Run this agent before deploying a major feature set to ensure no overlooked technical debt will cause an outage under initial user load.
2. Scaling Assessment: When planning to move from 10k to 1M users, use it to get a definitive list of the first components that need re-architecting.
3. Codebase Cleanup Mandate: Feed it a section of legacy code and ask it specifically to find all 'HACK' markers and prioritize them by blast radius.
