★ Project BIFROST: Shipping Code While I Sleep
From GitHub Issue to Pull Request. Autonomously.
Label a GitHub issue, approve it from my phone, go to sleep, wake up to a pull request. That’s the goal.
The Problem
Even with AI writing code, I was still the middleware—copying, pasting, fixing errors, re-asking. The backlog grew faster than I could work through it.
BEFORE
Human Drives Every Step
Idea → Ask AI → Copy → Paste → Fix → Repeat
→
AFTER
AI Executes After Human Intent
Idea → Issue → Approve → PR

PR
I write the what and why. BIFROST handles the how.
Key design choice: AI executes after human intent, never before. The approval gate is non-negotiable.
What I Learned

BIFROST is a proof-of-concept. The overnight agent works, but it's still experimental.
