Current Project: The GAME Framework for Agentic Development

I have combined my Process Based Methodology and scale-proven Technology Rules into an agentic developer Framework.

The concept is exciting. Contact me if you want to collaborate.

Summary: LLMs enable developers to create quickly. The creations differ and do not work together. The GAME framework provides a best practice stack and a mechanism to "conform" projects such that they work together, work in the same way, and be managed from a single pane of glass. GAME provides a professional devops workflow with full project observability and control.

Key Concept: Annotations and Scripts expose project capabilities in a uniform way with no code impact.

Key Concept: Agents enforce best practices, branding, and security - easily customized defaults provided (its text)

Key Concept: A Capability Catalog disovers project capabilities and advertises these as a complete tools catalog (MCP for python)

Key Concept: Capabilities include services, data, and servers. You share your technologies securely and use your capabilities in your Agentic Development.

Key Concept: Conformed code is enables an enterprise command center with enterprise features like Logging, Monitoring & Alerting, Scheduling, Pipelines...

The GAME Framework contains

  • A Command Center provides namespaced views into your projects.
  • A Capability Catalog broadcasts/shares your tooling in a "MCP for python" manner (transport agnostic: REST, CLI, Async, MCP)
  • A Prototyper enables context aware reproducible builds from base specifications for home developers
  • Simple Workflows enable control of your projects and change management

OUT OF THE BOX Enterprise Operations

Monitoring, Documentation, Scheduled tasks, Security, Data Flows, and Sharing of your "STUFF".
