What you get
- plan — breaks goals into right-sized tasks, each with a build handoff your assistant executes directly. - build — tracks what was built, what surprised you, what was discovered. - review / release — close the loop, so every cycle feeds the next plan. - strategy reviews — every few cycles step back and check direction, not just velocity. - dashboard at getpapi.ai — see cycles, board, and decisions without asking. The methodology is the product: a plan/build/review/release loop with memory that compounds. PAPI has been built with PAPI for 320+ cycles. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Codex.Sign in to leave a review
