The Linux kernel recently added guidelines for AI coding assistants. They said:
"AI agents MUST NOT add Signed-off-by tags. Only humans can certify."
We agree. Human oversight is non-negotiable.
What Lobster Is and Isn't
Lobster Orchestrator manages 50+ AI agent instances on old phones. But we're clear about what we're not:
- Not an agent framework (use hermes-agent for that)
- Not a coding assistant (use Archon for that)
- Not a memory plugin (use rowboat for that)
- Not ready for production (we're V0.5.0 and proud of it)
What We Can't Do (Yet)
- Compile and test on all platforms (no Go CI yet)
- Auto-heal crashed instances (manual restart required)
- Cross-device synchronization (single machine only)
- Enterprise SSO (it's a side project, not a product)
Transparency is our growth strategy. We'd rather tell you what we can't do than oversell what we can.
Lobster Supports Human Oversight
Every instance has a human owner. Every decision is traceable. We support the Assisted-by tag natively. Because attribution matters.
Lobster is designed to be overseen, not autonomous. The "不死龙虾" (undying lobster) philosophy isn't about replacing humans — it's about keeping agents alive for humans.
