With the popularity of AI programming assistants like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code, more and more code is generated by AI. However, the quality of AI-generated code varies, and there is a risk of "hallucination"—where AI may produce code that seems reasonable but is actually incorrect. This uncertainty brings new challenges to code review and project maintenance.
Traditional software development processes assume code is written by humans, and reviewers can make judgments based on the author's ability and context. But when the code source becomes AI, this assumption no longer holds. We need new workflows to ensure the credibility, traceability, and verifiability of AI-generated code.
The RigorLoop project was born to solve this problem. It proposes a complete Git-first workflow that integrates the activities of AI programming agents into a strict engineering management system.
