StellarView is in alpha. It builds a company's cloud, pipeline, board, tests, documentation and training films, then runs them. Here is an eleven minute film it made of itself, every line landing on a real screen, what is checkable in it, and what is still rough.
Part three. We did not invent a new SDLC for agents. We put them into the Scrum most teams run, and kept the record: 311 build sessions, $3,268 at list price, 1,470 test runs judged on evidence, and the three things the record caught us getting wrong.
A demo is a foal. It cost nothing and it cannot finish a race. We are a very small shop that breeds the whole horse: data model, application, billing, infrastructure, the console you watch it from, and the support that runs after we leave. Here is the stable, and here is what is still dashed.
Part two. One real sprint meeting, kept as a model: 94 beats, 43 defined topics, 94 cited facts, a nine-step path, a self-test with no model call, the close against its pre-read, a $1.34 receipt, and all of it in Spanish.
Our AI agents sit in the sprint's meetings, and any claim that does not cite a fact from the frozen snapshot is struck before it is said. Nineteen minutes of the whole lifecycle on real screens, a real refinement that cost $1.34 and fell short of its own pre-read, and what does not work yet.
Madstone sent two documents. Two days later there was a running service in the cloud, ten stacked pull requests, a thirty-five page wiki, their own keys wired in, and a twenty-six minute film of every step. How a crew of agents and people does it, what it cost, and what still does not work.
