But after another year of treading water, it's time to make the pragmatic choice.

Rust has the ecosystem and the safety guarantees we need.

Both Firefox and Chromium have already begun introducing Rust into their codebases, and we think it's the right choice for Ladybird 2.

What spec-driven development gets wrong.

Spec-driven development has a decay problem.

Design docs go stale soon after they're written and nobody gets rewarded for keeping them current.

That was annoying before and now it's getting dangerous.

AI agents are following stale specs confidently, executing plans misaligned with assumed reality without ever flagging the drift.

Augment's answer is bidirectional spec maintenance.

Agents don't just read the spec, they write back to it.

What happens when an agent discovers an existing auth context?

It wires into that and updates the plan.

If agents can write code, they can update the spec.

This only works when the agent actually understands your entire code base.

That's exactly what Augment's context engine is built to do.

It opens the door for specs that get more accurate over time, not less.
