I am wondering what use people get out of this. What I like about pi is that, using proprietary harnesses to begin with, I already somewhat know what kind of features I use and features I wish I could use. Asking pi to self modify itself (with a smart enough model) is a one time cost for a fully vetted feature that I personally approve. Do users of OMP find all of its additions useful?

Yeah, Advisor and "time-travelling rules" (TTSR) work great (they're injecting corrective prompts automatically either via another critic LLM or a bunch of regex rules, respectively)

It automates a lot of the babysitting of agents, and lets me use a couple of smaller models with safeguards instead of burning tokens on a galaxy brain just because it listens to instructions in AGENTS.md.

I’d love to know more about the time traveling rules. How have you used them?

Blocking slop code, like `unwrap_or_default()` in Rust that agents use to weasel out of error handling.

/omfg automatically adds new rules, so I have plenty of project-specific enforcement (e.g. disallowing making certain fields public, which agents love to do to take a shortcut that ruins the architecture).

It’s the same kind of people that would use omz, they probably have no idea what 90% of the batteries are or do. But it sure makes them feel smart and cool.
