AgentMachinist is a Python CLI tool that adds a structured human-in-the-loop workflow to coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Goose. It enforces a spec-approval-implementation-verification-review cycle with local integration and optional GitHub/GitLab publication, giving developers control over agent-generated changes.

Target audience: backend developers, devops engineers, software engineering teams using AI coding agents
