I have not required a service for this kind of optimization at work. Though work gives me unbounded access to Claude 4.x-1m (substitute x with whatever is available). So I often ask it to do this kind of task.
I found that when I just specify, sometimes the AI will optimize to the point that it breaks other existing functional requirements in the same codebase. So I have to steer it with invariants. This is where the bulk of my effort is - monitoring to make sure that the agent didn't suddenly scramble the infra or delete valid usecases.
1. How do you address that [paperclip problem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumental_convergence) in Remoroo? Can we define invariants? 2. Why is there a whole orchestration system? Was there some limitation that prompted this architecture, e.g. did workers die frequently? Looks like Temporal/AWS SWF with the brain/worker/control architecture. The existence of `q (quit): Kills the Worker, aborts the run. The run is marked FAILED.` makes me think there's only one worker...so why...? It'd make more sense if the brain wanted to dispatch multiple hypotheses to multiple workers to test in parallel (e.g. if optimizing SQL, try these different joins all at once, discard queries running for X minutes after the first complete one).
(I didn’t dive too deep into neither so my apologies if it’s apples to oranges)
