Hey folks, Anyone else dealing with agents that nod along to your custom rules in the prompt, then quietly ignore them two steps later in a long workflow? Super frustrating when you’re deep in a refactor or migration. I built ThumbGate (v1.16.22) precisely for this. It’s local-first, MIT-licensed agent governance. Give a thumbs-down on a bad action → it distills that into a Pre-Action Gate that physically blocks the pattern before the next tool call fires. Thumbs-up strengthens good behavior. No prompt engineering gymnastics. No repeating yourself. Just self-improving enforcement that works across sessions. Quick start: npx thumbgate init Supports Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Amp, etc. Latest version adds better runtime checks for hybrid workflows. Would love honest feedback from anyone running agents daily—does this solve a real pain for you, or am I missing something?
