Working code is not the same thing as owned software.
AI development tools are extremely good at producing functioning code quickly. The harder question is whether the result has consistent boundaries, safe authorization, a sensible data model, resilient async behavior and patterns another engineer can understand six months later.
An AI-assisted application review can cover
- Authentication and authorization assumptions
- Validation and sensitive-data handling
- Database model, query behavior and scaling risks
- Queues, retries, idempotency and webhooks
- Error handling, logs and failure visibility
- Dependency choices and generated abstraction layers
- Duplicated or conflicting business logic
- Tests around critical workflows
- Whether the project is ready for a human team to own
We are not anti-AI.
NoRewrite uses AI-assisted development too. The distinction is accountability. Production software needs somebody capable of deciding what the generated code means for security, reliability, performance and long-term maintenance.
