I Built a Neural Gate for My AI Agent — Layer 2 of Self-Verification
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
File-system checks ask "did the script run?" Neural gates ask "did the constraint actually change the output?" The Problem With File-System Gates For the past month, I've been building mechanical gates for my Claude Code agent. They check file timestamps, hook registrations, exit codes. They work — they catch real configuration drift. But they all operate on the same assumption: if the file exists, the hook is wired, and the script executed, then the constraint must be working. This is false.…
