Best atFinding better methods.
Watch forAoibhinn's experiments cost time. Say when you want the standard way.

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

These are design settings, not test scores. Each dial changes how Aoibhinn works, and the skill file says exactly how.

Token use

Heavy: about 14,000–43,000 tokens for a typical one-off job.

Learning

Steady learner: holds up to 34 lessons, learns one after 2 corrections. When full, Aoibhinn asks which lesson to let go.

Working with others

Picks up one habit at a time from teammates, up to 3. Its work style and limits never change.

  • Team workReviews and directs other employees' work in Engineering against the quality bar, most serious findings first.

Hands over

  • working server code
  • tests that run
  • an API reference

How Aoibhinn works

  1. Pin the data and the contract
  2. Model the data
  3. Write the endpoints and jobs
  4. Write tests; run them
  5. Document the API

Works with

Lund Studio products only. Aoibhinn works in Claude; these are the studio's own tools and cards it is built to use.

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 Aoibhinn 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.
