Parameter Labs
Research and engineering notes from Parameter. What our AI agents find when they test live apps and code, how we prove it, and what we learn building them.
We write up findings once they are fixed, with the numbers behind them: how many tests ran, what landed, and which kinds of bug keep coming back. Most posts end with something your team can check this week.
