- Why ASE
Agents got fast.
Everything around them didn’t.
Elevate Your Vibe with ASE Precision.
Nobody adopts a control plane because they wanted one. They adopt it because something broke: a diff nobody could review, an agent that reached somewhere it shouldn’t have, a boundary that wouldn’t allow the tool, or a question they couldn’t answer about work their own team shipped.
Six frictions, named the way you’d actually say them. Each one links to what ASE does about it — mechanism, not adjective.
The six things that break first.
In roughly the order teams hit them. Most people arrive with one and discover the other five within a month.
Same control plane. Different accountability.
A solo operator and a program office under CMMC need the same guarantees. They need them described very differently.
Not a replacement for the agents you already like.
ASE sits above Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and local models — it doesn’t compete with them and it doesn’t ask your engineers to switch. It also isn’t a prompt-chain runner: the unit of work is a governed constellation run with definitions, gates, and evidence, not a clever sequence of prompts.
- Your harnesses — Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, or ASE’s own multi-provider adapter.
- Your models — API providers, or Ollama and LM Studio when nothing may leave the building.
- Your infrastructure — self-hosted first, Docker Compose, your operational store.
- Your identity — Keycloak OIDC with MFA, passkeys, and role-based access control.
Bring the friction you actually have.
Thirty minutes against a real repository, a real stack, or a real document set — and the evidence bundle at the end. No deck.
