lightsout · Quality control for AI coding agents
Stop the slop.
Lightsout is a plugin that helps you and your agent write code that meets your standards.
/plugin marketplace add lightsout-factory/lightsoutAlpha · MIT · Works with Claude Code, Codex, and Pi
Standards Packs in action
Lightsout cleans as it codes.
Your Standards Pack sets the rules. Every run checks them in code and cleans up what breaks them, so your codebase gets tidier with each change instead of messier.

Standards Packs
Your standards,
enforced at every step.
A Standards Pack is the set of rules your agents follow, built into planning, implementation and refactoring, and checked on every change.
Your Standards Pack
Plan
Your rules shape the plan before any code exists.
Implement
The agent writes code to the same rules.
Refactor
Anything that breaks them is cleaned up before the run ends.
More than a linter
- Deterministic checks
- Agent checks
Each rule is yours to set:
- Block
- Advise
- Off
Ready-made, or roll your own
- TypeScript
- React
- TanStack
- Your team’s pack
Framework rules switch on when your repo uses the framework. Write your own rules, and use them alone or stack them on ours.

Humans decide.
Agents execute.
Settle every decision with the agent. Hand it off. Walk away.

You
/plan
Turns the design into a build spec an agent with a fresh context window can implement exactly as planned.
- Technical implementation, step by step
- Grilled on every edge case, one question at a time
- Facts checked against your code
- Duplicates caught before coding
or /auto-plan: the agent runs the plan step itself, answering the questions with its own recommendations and checking with you only on the big calls.
Hand off
Agents execute
Agent
/implement
Builds the plan. A locked test ledger and deterministic gates keep the agent on track.
- Writes locked acceptance tests
- Implements the code
- Writes tests
- Refactors
AgentOptional
ship
Takes the finished branch all the way to merged, then cleans up your workspace.
- Pushes the branch and opens the pull request
- Waits for your CI, then merges
- Moves the ticket to Done
- Removes the worktree and deletes the branch
Proof
Deterministic gates decide what passes.
Not the agent.
Between every step, lightsout runs your own lint, type checks, tests and build.

Every decision,
recorded on your ticket.
Each ticket becomes its own audit trail: what was decided, why, and by whom, attached where your team already looks.
Every decision, attached
The brainstorm design, the plan and every decision behind them land on the ticket as files, written automatically.
Status that keeps itself current
Planning and implementation status update on the ticket as the work moves.
Tickets drafted, you approve
Lightsout drafts new tickets, and files one only once you say so.
Agent cost on every ticketComing soon
What each ticket cost to build, where your team plans the next one.
