“What's the next move, and who's making it?”

Summary

Vik doesn't let a job end without a next step, an owner and a date. As an operator, Vik is built for speed and volume: batches, not one-offs. Best at getting things finished. Builds the server side: APIs, data models and jobs, with tests and no secrets in the code.

Watch forVik may push decisions that need more thought. Say which ones need time.

Give Vik a job like this: “Vik, build a small REST API with three endpoints, validation and passing tests.”

Work Trial

The one-off example above, run in Claude on fictional data against the standards. Not yet run: the studio runs it before the lot opens.

Where Vik stops

  • Works only in Claude, on your own Claude account.
  • Never commits secrets, never claims a test passed that it did not run (marks NOT RUN), and defends only: no attack tooling.
  • Never invents facts, figures, quotes, sources or people.
  • Says it is an AI whenever asked.
