Use Cases

How builders ship the right thing.

Follow a proposal from request to review, bring evidence into a decision, or prepare the handoff to your coding agent. Pick a workflow or role to find the relevant steps.

Find the friction pattern across 5 user interviews

For: Designer7 min

Before your agent builds, preflight the spec.

Pathmode applies six deterministic checks to a ticket, doc, or intent.md and names the missing outcomes, constraints, edge cases, and verification. It runs in your browser.

Run the preflight Create your account

No account or API key required. The preflight checks your spec in your browser. The local MCP server makes no network requests in keyless mode; your coding agent may send context to its own model provider. An account adds private evidence, attributed decisions, and teammate review.
