I wrote a contract to stop AI from guessing when writing code

I’ve been experimenting with something while working with AI on technical problems.

The issue I kept running into was drift:

• answers filling in gaps I didn’t specify
• solutions collapsing too early
• “helpful” responses that weren’t actually correct

So I wrote a small interaction contract to constrain the AI.

Nothing fancy — just rules like:

• don’t infer missing inputs
• explicitly mark unknowns
• don’t collapse the solution space
• separate facts from assumptions

It’s incomplete and a bit rigid, but it’s been surprisingly effective for:

• writing code
• debugging
• thinking through system design

It basically turns the AI into something closer to a logic tool than a conversational one.

Sharing it in case anyone else wants to experiment with it or tear it apart:

If you’ve run into similar issues with AI drift, I’d be interested to hear how you’re handling it.
