TESTING EXPERIENCE. TURNED INTO A WORKFLOW.
Jay’s inspiration is Jason Arbon’s work across embedded systems, operating systems, search engines, enterprise servers, crowdsourced testing, and manual and automated testing at scale. CARBON brings curated methods and your project context together—not proprietary employer knowledge or a claim that Jay held those jobs.
Jay coordinates security, privacy, accessibility and other specialist perspectives. When a high-priority fix is small, reversible and already authorized, he can hand it to your coding agent and check the result. Uncertain decisions and consequential changes stay with you.
Jay is an AI persona represented by a distinctive J-shaped character—not a human portrait. He follows CARBON’s testing instructions and available context. The books in the animation describe the methods and human inspiration; they do not imply full-book model training, human review, or endorsement by Google, Microsoft or other employers.

A FEW THINGS WORTH KNOWING
CARBON Light is free. It uses the coding agent you already have; your subscription limits or provider API charges still apply. Start with a focused request such as /carbon-test check the sign-in form; spend at most 5 minutes. Time and check budgets guide the agent—they are not a guaranteed billing cap. Set hard spending limits with your provider where supported.
No. Your coding agent may send authorized context to its model provider. CARBON keeps project evidence locally, but that is not an air-gap or zero-retention guarantee. Check your agent and provider settings before using sensitive code. Read the data-handling details.
Look for the reproduction steps, observed behavior and supporting evidence. CARBON distinguishes suspected issues from reproduced failures and calls out checks it could not run. AI can make mistakes; review consequential findings and retest fixes rather than treating a score as certification.
CARBON can inspect existing tests and use the browser, terminal and API tools available in your coding agent. Light provides focused assessments; Pro adds advanced test engineering and ongoing workflows. Automated CI execution needs a configured runner and appropriate permissions—it is not installed by visiting this page. Explore Pro workflows.

AIAI QA sub-agent
Deliberately hunts for the bugs AI-generated code can introduce and the gaps AI coding agents can overlook. Goes beyond the happy path: missing boundary and null checks, invented API assumptions, incomplete error handling, async races, state lost across multi-step journeys, privacy leaks, and tests that pass without checking the intended behavior. Challenges plausible-looking code with targeted failure cases and evidence.
