Reality Check skill keeps agents on track and reduces hallucinations
doodlestein · x · 2026-08-20
The author highlights the "Reality Check" skill as the most powerful tool in their agentic coding arsenal. It forces agents to critique their output against the goal, significantly reducing hallucinations and errors. Combined with Beads for task management, this enabled the author to plan and implement much of a new project, FrankenNLP, in a very short time.
