Give Confidence Somewhere to Live

Turn scattered quality assumptions into a project record.

The team discussed the risks last week. The agent does not know which conversation mattered. The release document still says “add tests.”

Confidence is hard to build when its supporting knowledge has nowhere durable to live.

/carbon-confidence-init initializes a project-local confidence workspace: a system map, risk register, claim ledger, and places for evaluations, incidents, traces, and release evidence.

The files are the starting point

Creating folders is easy. The useful work is filling them with concrete facts about this system.

For an assistant that searches customer documents, the boundary might include retrieval, tenant permissions, model calls, tool access, and the UI that presents the answer. “The AI could be wrong” is too broad. “An answer must not cite a document outside the current tenant” is a claim that can guide investigation.

CARBON inspects the available repository and replaces starter material with the relevant boundaries, risks, and falsifiable claims. Existing evidence should survive another initialization.

Begin with a feature-sized boundary

/carbon-confidence-init initialize the evidence workspace for our document-search assistant; focus on tenant boundaries and unsupported answers

The resulting report explains what was initialized and what the inspection established. It does not turn the new risk register into evidence that the risks are controlled.

This is useful when a project is growing beyond what one conversation can reliably hold. Future investigations have a place to start, and reviewers can see the assumptions rather than reconstruct them from test filenames.

You are not creating confidence by creating documents. You are creating the structure that makes confidence possible to examine.
