About the startup
SMAC is how you create or change an app with AI — without giving the AI your IDE. Pick any model & any editor. Grok, ChatGPT, Claude. Visual Studio, or whatever already holds the project. SMAC is the desk between them. The loop is the product: adapter (clipboard in), merger (preview, accept into MERGED), firewall (you promote, then Save — the AI never writes disk), feature list (rules the next chat must obey), packer (files back to the chat in one paste). Freedom of pair. Custody of the Master.
