Strikethroo
A spec-driven task-management tool for AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI, built around reviewing an agent's plan before it writes code rather than reviewing the resulting diff afterward.
Strikethroo is a spec-driven task-management tool for AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI. It is built around an explicit approval gate: the user reviews the agent's plan, one question at a time, before code is written, on the reasoning that correcting a plan costs a sentence while correcting the same misunderstanding in a finished diff costs a full review and rework cycle.
An optional review step runs on a different agent harness than the one that wrote the code, so the harness that produced the code is excluded from reviewing it; the reviewer only reports findings rather than fixing them itself. Workflow rules, such as a certification check that an uncertified review is never reported as clean, are compiled rather than left as editable Markdown requests, while plain-Markdown hooks at eleven points in the workflow let a team add its own test commands, standards and conventions.
It ships as a harness-agnostic Agent Skill, uses no separate API keys, and is written in TypeScript under the MIT license.
