+
+### Context
+
+The AI hype is starting to find its limits. A reason for these limits comes from the lack of appropriate programming models to represent and express the concepts of learning algorithms. One example of this appears in Reinforcement Learning (RL) [1] programs, which often lack the standards and quality od regular software projets.
+
+This problem arises, in part, from the poor tools to express and represent the programs built using RL techniques.
+
+### Project proposal
+
+In this project we are going to implement an analysis framework tool to help use reason about RL programs in terms of their execution [2], being able to pause and modify program values and code, and to analyze the quality in terms of software metrics.
+
+### Implementation plan
+
+- Implement and IDE for RL program analysis
+- Integrate execution analysis for RL programs
+- Integrate a quality analysis for RL programs
+
+### Background and Literature
