Ask People the Questions the Code Cannot Answer

Human judgment where it can actually change the testing.

Is this a disposable demo or the workflow your customers will depend on tomorrow?

The code may not tell you. Neither will another hundred generated tests.

/carbon-human identifies the smallest set of project-specific human questions that could materially change the assessment: intent, risk appetite, workflow fit, domain assumptions, consequences, and accountability.

Spend human attention carefully

Do not ask “what does the app do?” when the README already explains it. Ask whether the implemented workflow solves the customer's actual problem, whether a surprising behavior is acceptable, or who absorbs the damage when it fails.

CARBON inspects existing context first. Questions are separated for Testers, PM or Project Manager, Product Manager, and Developer so the right people can see the decisions they are best placed to clarify.

The local HTML workspace supports quick choices, free-form answers, and comments. Questions and answers persist so future runs do not repeatedly ask for the same context. A changed business situation can still require revisiting an old answer.

Keep testing while the question is open

Missing optional answers qualify the technical assessment rather than blocking every useful check. Silence is not approval, and a recorded opinion is not an executed test result.

The aim is not to turn people into a questionnaire service for the agent. It is to reserve their attention for the places where intent, experience, and responsibility make the answer materially better.

Install CARBON at testers.ai/carbon for a supported coding agent such as Claude, Codex, or Cursor.
