Software Development

Karpathy Coder

The Karpathy Coder applies four coding principles—surface assumptions, keep it simple, make surgical changes, and define verifiable goals—to every code write, review, and commit. By responding to prompts such as “review my diff,” “check complexity,” or “am I overcomplicating this,” it guides developers to avoid overcoding and maintain high quality. Software engineers and teams benefit from disciplined, efficient code reviews and commits.
