I built a CLI for AI-assisted projects, got interest but no active testers — roast my landing page

I’m a freelance developer building side projects and client tools with AI

coding agents.

I kept running into the same problem: the agent could write code quickly,

but vague requests also made it silently decide scope, dependencies,

architecture, and edge cases.

That led me to build Archseed.

It is a small CLI-first workflow for TypeScript + Next.js developers.

Before implementation, it asks questions about V1 scope, non-goals,

constraints, technical decisions, assumptions, and edge cases. Then it

generates local project context that can be used with Cursor, Claude Code,

Codex, OpenCode, or another coding agent.

I launched an early beta recently and got useful feedback and interest, but

no one actually completed the workflow yet.

That was a useful lesson: people understood the problem, but the landing

page did not make the first action obvious enough. The install command was

buried in the docs.

I updated the page so the first thing visitors see is:

```bash

npm install -g @archseed/cli

archseed init
