A visual demo beyond entering an api key would be useful. A picture says a thousand words. I did not feel inclined to read all of the readme, but when i saw people here talking about mission control I went back one more time.

This looks great. Building right into the editor looks like a solid way to go. I built "Agent Kanban" (anextension) for VS Code to enforce a similar "plan, tasks, implement" flow as you describe. That flow is really powerful for getting solid Agentic coding results. My tool went the route of encouraging the model via augmenting AGENTS.md and having the Kanban task file be markdown that the user and agent converse in (with some support for git worktrees which helps when running multiple sessions in parallel): https://www.appsoftware.com/blog/introducing-vs-code-agent-k...

Modo was a DCC software: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modo_(software)

Really cool. I've been building a mission control system (multi agent orchestration) that follows very similar patterns of spec driven development, steering, and task management. Having this baked into an IDE is a great idea.

For observability, would be amazing to have session replay or at least session exploration built in. Kinda like git history but tied to tasks and tool use instead of file diffs.

I have settled on the same approach as you except I have the agent create a roadmap.md in an /agile folder with numbered epics containing sprints, user stories and other context.

How does modo help vs using a skill or claud.md that says to always do this?

Not a critique just giving you a chance to sell it :)

What did you learn?

Modo is a 3-D modeling tool. Why is this named after it?

Yes, downvote a fact.
