An Agentic Development Lifecycle (ADLC) protocol for AI coding agents. Oystro keeps your AI coding on track

I am building Oystro because AI coding agents are fast, but speed without oversight is how projects drift from what was intended. I want work you can review, audit, and stand behind: human gates, recorded decisions, and evidence with every change. Oystro Team is a small group that shares the same goal.
