Insight

The real scale of a production coding agent

Project scale:
- Files: ~1,884 .ts/.tsx
- Lines of code: 512,664
- Runtime: Bun
- Language: TypeScript (strict)
- UI framework: React + custom Ink renderer
- CLI parsing: Commander.js
- Schema validation: Zod v4

Chapters cover: multi-stage startup pipeline with 91 CLI options and 6 execution modes; Generator state-machine query engine with 7-level error recovery; Tool interface with 30+ methods; three-layer Bash security with 23 checks; ResolveOnce race protection with 7 permission modes; 150+ field AppState with a 35-line pure-function store.

[translated] Numbers that calibrate expectations: a production-grade agent harness is a half-million-line system, and most of it is safety, state, and UI - not the model loop.
