#dusk $DUSK @Dusk I used to think documentation problems were mostly a developer inconvenience.
Then I started thinking about what happens when the documentation describes one system, while the code quietly becomes another.
That gap can be much more serious than a typo.
Dusk’s Pituitary caught my attention for exactly this reason.
It was built to detect what Dusk calls spec drift situations where specifications, decision records and documentation stop matching the code they are supposed to describe. It can flag stale docs, overlapping decisions, terminology changes and code that contradicts an accepted specification.
