Mine happened while working on Yoetz, migrating from the older closed-source agent version to the current one.
I gave the agent (Codex) access to the old repo and had it do the build. It kept telling me "I migrated everything and made the changes." Then I'd open the PR and end up writing a laundry list of everything that still needed fixing.
That's actually what pushed us to refocus Yoetz from general research to coding specifically. Research for university is where it had the most real impact for me, but this migration was the moment I most wanted to curse at AI.
Yoetz is a local-first, open-source work ledger for AI coding agents. An agent publishes what it did; Yoetz checks the record and issues a receipt that states what was verified, at what coverage, and what is still open. Supports Codex, Claude and Cursor
