elephant-goldfish-model is an agent framework - Open-source skills for designing and reviewing software with AI agents.

OverviewLink to this section

Thousands of Google engineers use EGM, an open-source plugin, to draft specs with deep-context agents and stress-test them with zero-context subagents before writing code.

Elephant holds your project context and drafts the specification. Goldfish reviewers examine the draft and referenced source material without the earlier conversation, helping expose unstated assumptions and blind spots. You make the architectural trade-offs and approve the specification before implementing.

Use it when a feature needs design decisions before implementation. For a small, clear bug fix, use your normal coding workflow.

Choose your coding agent. Install the complete plugin so its skills can read the reviewer prompts and document standards.

For the Antigravity App and Antigravity for IDEs (Visual Studio Code extension), run '/plugin' or see the installation instructions.

Start a new session after installation. For Claude Cowork and ChatGPT Work, see the setup guide.

Open your project in your coding agent and choose a feature that needs design decisions. This example adds webhook delivery: what should happen when a delivery fails, or the same event arrives twice?

elephant-goldfish-model is open-source, written primarily in Python, with 11,892 GitHub stars under the Apache 2.0 license. The latest release is v0.1.0 (2026-10-27).
