Lets the agent open your dev server, click through it, screenshot what it sees and read the browser console. The gap it closes is an agent that writes frontend code it has never actually run.
In the author’s words

Goes well with
tdd
Red, green, refactor, run by the agent.
Test-first for features and bug fixes, with integration tests rather than mocks where the integration is the risk. The discipline it adds is writing the failing test before the agent is allowed near the implementation.

TestingFull page & trust audit →diagnosing-bugs
A diagnosis loop for hard bugs and performance regressions.
Stops the agent from guessing at a fix. It reproduces, narrows, forms one hypothesis at a time and tests it, which is the difference between a bug being fixed and a symptom being buried.

DebuggingFull page & trust audit →systematic-debugging
Forces a method before any fix is proposed.
Fires on any bug, failing test or surprise, and it fires before the agent is allowed to suggest a change. The order is the whole point: understand the failure, then propose. It is the counterweight to an agent that is eager to be helpful.
