Reported issues for argot

Pod holds 16 of 16 problems reported by people outside the maintainer team. Issues filed by the project's own owners, members and collaborators are excluded entirely — a maintainer's release checklist is not a warning to a prospective user.

Back to argot.

Generate STYLE.md from learned voice (onboarding companion)

Background

argot already learns the repo's voice. That data is currently used reactively (score new hunks against it). It's also useful proactively as documentation:

  • For new human contributors: "here's how this codebase tends to write" — a generated style guide grounded in the repo's actual practice, not aspirational rules
  • For LLM coding agents: a system-prompt-friendly summary of the repo's voice (ties into the MCP server ticket — same data, human-readable form)
  • **For PR-au

Calibration freshness: warn when model is stale, optional auto-refit

Background

argot's model rots silently. After ~1000 commits or a meaningful chunk of refactoring since the last fit, the threshold and corpus are increasingly out of date — but the user has no signal that the numbers they're seeing are stale.

This is a quiet correctness gap: argot looks like it's still working, but the voice it learned isn't current.

Goal

Surface staleness clearly, give users a frictionless path to address it.

What it does

  • On every check, compute a "model ag

MCP server for LLM coding agents (with preemptive voice-context queries)

Background

LLM coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, etc.) generate code that frequently sits just off the repo's voice — calls a slightly-wrong helper, picks an unfamiliar import alias, structures a function in the framework's default style instead of the local style. This is exactly the gap argot was built for, but today an agent has to shell out to argot check and parse text output.

There's a sharper opportunity hiding here: argot doesn't have to be a post-hoc linter for LLMs.

Set up proper user-facing documentation site

Background

User-facing docs today are concentrated in the README (long, increasingly the only entry point) plus scattered material in docs/research/ (era-by-era ADRs) and docs/agents/ (internal agent guidance). There's no dedicated docs site, no structured reference for the CLI / config / scorer, no how-to guides, and no per-language pages.

As the supported-languages list grows (#42–#50) and surfaces like introspection (#51) and per-hunk evidence (#40) land, the README is going to buckl
