The verification harness for AI-native software teams
Arcus checks the code against what the ticket asked for while developers and agents are still coding, so drift gets fixed before you move on to the next ticket.
Independent agents check every PR against the sprint — gaps flagged before they ship.
Sprint 43 · Payments v2
Correlates the diff against coverage, tickets, and history to show what a change could actually break — not just which tests ran.
PR, ticket, design, and test history linked in one chain — so when something fails, you know exactly what it was supposed to do.
Success Criteria
- Complete family quote process in under 15 minutes
- Quote completion rate > 65% for family plans
- Clear family pricing differentiation displayed
- Professional proposal with all family members listed
Follow a task from ticket to release.
The ticket becomes the baseline intent everything is verified against.

Arcus reads the ticket, its acceptance criteria and the designs, so every later check knows what the task was supposed to do.
Drift gets caught in the developer session, right inside the preferred IDE.
While the developer and their agent are still working, Arcus checks the code against intent, shows the blast radius and writes the tests the behaviour calls for.
The paths nobody tested get found.
Exploratory run · Checkout
The exploratory agent crawls the live app, runs against what no test covers, and turns good runs into scripts that run the same every time. QA starts from verified, not from zero.
Ship it, or know exactly why not.
Sprint 43 · Payments v2
The release score is built from everything verified upstream, so the call on whether to ship comes with its reasons, not a guess made at the end.
How Arcus sits across the lifecycle
Plan sets the scope. Code, test and release are where the agents act. The knowledge graph runs underneath all of it, and feeds forward into the release gate.
Where the diff happens
- Unit tests
- Blast radius
- Developer-authored functional tests
Where coverage gets proven
- Agentic test runs
- Explorer agent
- Coverage gap detection
- Traceability
Where the call gets made
- Release confidence
- Release readiness
- Release gate
Works with the agents you use
Arcus plugs natively into whichever agent wrote the code, reading exactly what it shipped, and checks it independently of the agent that wrote it.
Works with your SDLC stack natively
No separate portal to check. Gaps, blast radius, and traceability show up in whichever tool the team already runs, via native 2-way sync, not a dashboard you have to remember to open.
Quality starts at the source.
The Arcus CLI is a true harness, sitting deeply embedded in the developer’s workflow — the same terminal, the same hooks, the same CI, not a dashboard bolted on after the fact.
Building your own?
Plenty of teams start with Claude and Playwright, and it works. This is what you end up owning once it does.
Keep your agents writing code. Let Arcus check it.
