SFML is a language specification for defining software factories. You can think of it as Terraform for your software development lifecycle. I started from a language spec to help think through both how a factory is defined and how a conforming runner processes it.The push to do this comes from leading teams where everyone has a unique coding setup, which results in different agentic coding processes. People also want to work together on improving that process. Right now they do it through shared
