hey HN! happy to answer any questions

this kind of tool is especially useful in longer running tasks to enforce your intent without having to check in on your agent all the time

Can users stack Quibblers, so Quibbler 2 corrects Quibbler 1 if, say, it fabricates an issue in the code it's reviewing? If so, have you found an optimum number of Quibblers for the Quibbler stack? Also, might users form a Quibbler council such that multiple Quibblers review the same thing and form a consensus before proceeding?

I love the pixel-perfect precision with which this comment is straddling the Poe's Law line.

That aside I also love the concept of Quibbler Council and I'd get a kick out of seeing it in action.

MoQs - Mixture of Quibblers? Would be convenient to have them run on dedicated FGPAs. Then they can facilitate near real-time quibbing at the network level across all packets.

> We’ve found Quibbler useful in preventing agents from: 1) fabricating results without running commands

Next step is critics for the critics.
