Open methodology for human-AI collaborative software development.
senar.tech · Читать на русском
SENAR is a practical engineering standard for teams where AI agents write code alongside human engineers. It defines roles, ceremonies, quality gates, and metrics — not abstract principles, but concrete rules you can adopt today. SENAR scales from a solo developer with an AI assistant to enterprise teams with dozens of agents. It is vendor-neutral and works with any AI coding tool: Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Windsurf, or custom setups.

- Context-over-Code — AI effectiveness depends on context quality, not prompt tricks
- FPSR (First Pass Success Rate) — primary metric: percentage of tasks done right on first attempt
- Quality Gates — automated checkpoints (QG-0 before work, QG-2 before merge)
- 15 Rules — concrete engineering rules, not abstract principles
- 4 Configurations — Core, Foundation, Team, Enterprise — adopt incrementally
- Engineering teams using AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.)
- CTOs and engineering leaders building AI-native development processes
- Organizations seeking a structured approach to human-AI collaboration
- Solo developers who want reliable AI-assisted workflows
