Pre-action checks that stop AI agents from repeating mistakes
ThumbGate sits in front of coding-agent tool calls and blocks risky repeats before they run. It turns thumbs-up and thumbs-down feedback into reusable rules, with local use for individuals and paid options for dashboards, sync, and team visibility.
Agenticness = how independently a tool can take action, scored across 9 dimensions. Scored independently by David Kooi, Skylark Creations — see full rubric →
