# X Thread: The 7 Laws of AI Agent Discipline

> Copy-paste ready. Each section = 1 tweet. Thread of 7.

**Tweet 1 (Hook)**

Your AI agent is lying to you.

It says "Done!" — but it didn't test anything.
It says "I'll add that" — but it never researched what already exists.
It says "This should work" — but it never verified.

I built 7 laws to fix this. Open source, works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI.

npx continuous-improvement install

**Tweet 2 (The Problem)**

Here's what happens WITHOUT discipline:

You: "Add rate limiting to /api/users"

Agent: "Done! I added express-rate-limit."
You: "We already had a rate limiter..."
Agent: "Oh. Let me fix that."
You: "Did you test it?"
Agent: "...the tests are failing."

4 rounds. Duplicate code. Broken endpoint. Sound familiar?

**Tweet 3 (The Solution)**

Here's the same task WITH the 7 laws:

Agent:
→ [Law 1: Research] Found existing rate limiter in middleware/
→ [Law 2: Plan] WILL extend it. WILL NOT create new one.
→ [Law 3: Execute] One file changed, +1 line.
→ [Law 4: Verify] Tests pass. curl confirms 429 after 100 reqs.

Done in 2 minutes. Correct on first attempt.

**Tweet 4 (The 7 Laws)**

The 7 Laws of AI Agent Discipline:

1. Research Before Executing — stop reinventing
2. Plan Is Sacred — no scope creep
3. One Thing at a Time — no stacking
4. Verify Before Reporting — no false "done"
5. Reflect After Sessions — no repeat failures
6. Iterate One Change — no debugging 5 things
7. Learn From Every Session — no lost knowledge

**Tweet 5 (Mulahazah)**

The secret weapon: Mulahazah (Arabic for "observation")

Your agent builds INSTINCTS over time:

• Install → hooks capture every tool call silently
• ~20 sessions → patterns detected, instincts created
• ~50 sessions → agent starts suggesting behaviors
• ~100 sessions → agent auto-applies what it learned

Wrong instincts decay. Corrections weaken them. It self-corrects.

**Tweet 6 (Install)**

Install in 10 seconds:

npx continuous-improvement install

That's it. Works with:
• Claude Code (full: skill + hooks + instincts)
• Cursor
• Codex
• Gemini CLI
• Any LLM (paste SKILL.md into system prompt)

Zero dependencies. MIT licensed. 20 tests passing.

---

**Tweet 7 (CTA)**

Every skill in the ecosystem adds capabilities.

This is the only one that fixes HOW your agent thinks.

Star it, try it, tell me which law saves you the most time.
