// AI Infrastructure for Engineering Teams
Kestal is a working AI governance platform you can self-host today.
One command installs the agent plugin. Real-time dashboards, security scanning,
and cost tracking go live immediately — while keeping your engineers
genuinely competent as the technology evolves under them.
Not a service. Not a subscription to someone else's dashboard.
Your infrastructure. Your data. Your control.
// No spam. We'll set up a walkthrough.

// 01 — The Problem
No orchestration layer
Engineers use AI tools ad-hoc — ChatGPT here, Cursor there, no routing, no fallback, no cost visibility. It works until it doesn't.
Skills are eroding
When every answer comes from a model, pattern recognition atrophies quietly. Your senior engineers become expensive prompt validators.
Zero visibility for CTOs
AI usage in your org is a black box. You can't see costs by team, flag risky prompts, or justify the budget to the board.
Vendor lock-in creep
Every tool you adopt adds another dependency you don't control. One API change and your entire workflow breaks.
// 02 — The Stack
Kestal is a self-hosted platform running today — not a SaaS. Your data stays on your infra. We don't hold your prompts or your engineers hostage.
// MODULE_01
A Claude Code plugin that captures every AI interaction and sends real telemetry to your platform.
Install with a single curl | bash command, pair via browser, and start streaming data in minutes.
No config files. No manual setup.
// MODULE_02
Analyzes your team's real AI usage, then generates targeted exercises using the SM-2 spaced repetition algorithm. Skill profiles track each developer. Exercises adapt to actual patterns — not generic tutorials, but drills built from your team's real data.
// MODULE_03
Live dashboard serving real data. Security alerts with PII detection and prompt injection scanning. Cost analytics broken down by team and model. Role-based access for admins, managers, and members. Everything running now — not a roadmap slide.
// 03 — How It Works
Install
Run one command to install Forge into Claude Code. curl | bash — that's it. No infrastructure changes required.
Connect
Browser-based pairing links each developer to your platform. Approve in one click, telemetry starts flowing immediately.
Monitor
Command dashboard goes live with real-time metrics. Security scanning, cost tracking, and team analytics from the first prompt.
Improve
SkillGuard generates exercises from your team's real usage patterns. Spaced repetition keeps skills sharp as AI adoption grows.
// Kestal Philosophy
Every other tool optimizes for engagement — more prompts, more usage, more lock-in. We optimize for the opposite: an engineering team that understands what the AI is doing, can override it when it's wrong, and gets sharper every week it runs.
// The Platform Is Live
// See it running with your team. No credit card required.
