HERO Ships a Paste-In Contract Naming the Four Shapes Coding Agents Over-Defend In
wanshuiyin/HERO-Anti-OverDefense was created 2026-08-11 and reached 68 stars the same day. HERO stands for Hashing, Edge cases, Rubrics, Overbuild — its claim is that agent over-engineering is not diffuse but falls into four recognizable shapes, and it ships a paste-in contract to suppress them across Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, and Gemini CLI. It's a Markdown-only repo with no code, which is itself the trend: the highest-velocity agent artifacts this week are prompt contracts and constraint documents, distributed as plain text and portable across every harness, with no install step to gate adoption.
