Why I Kept 8 Transparent Rules After Testing Small Local LLMs
Description and use
<p>A project brief that says <strong>"Build me a great website as soon as possible"</strong> is not yet a complete agreement. It may say nothing about the number of pages, what counts as acceptance, revision limits, or when payment becomes due.</p> <p>I built <a href="https://livastic-vm1-primary.github.io/scope-lens/" rel="noopener noreferrer">ScopeLens</a>, a free English/Korean project-brief checker, to surface those questions before someone writes a quote. It also has an optional open-weight local model.</p> <p>The surprising outcome: <strong>eight transparent checks were more consistently
