Continue — CI/Check System

TypeScript, ~328K lines, Apache 2.0. Source-controlled AI checks for CI/CD. Markdown-as-gate-policy.

Architecture: Shared core (@continuedev/core) with ~80 provider implementations, tool-calling engine, config system (YAML/JSON/Markdown). Serves CLI (Ink/React TUI + headless CI mode), IDE extensions (VS Code, JetBrains), web dashboard.

Safety model: Three permission levels (allow/ask/exclude). Precedence: mode policies → CLI flags → permissions.yaml → built-in defaults. Terminal security package for shell command analysis via shell-quote parsing. Workspace-scoped file access.

Data model: Markdown files for checks, agents, rules. Source-controlled in-repo. YAML frontmatter for metadata.

Self-modification: Checks source-controlled — any change goes through git.

Verification: None (the checks are themselves unverified).

Key gap vs Passepartout: The checks-as-markdown concept is philosophically similar to Passepartout's gate rules (deterministic policies checked before execution) but the implementation is dramatically simpler — regex-based policy objects, not a type-level gate stack with structural guarantees. No persistent agent, no memory, no knowledge graph, no neurosymbolic architecture. It is a gate system without an agent to gate.
