Your Agents Aren’t Failing. They’re Not Running.
Mon, 03 Aug 2026 16:28:37 +0000

AI agents are being judged by the quality of their answers. That is the wrong place to start.

Why Your Codebase Is Forcing Your AI to Underperform
Fri, 31 Jul 2026 12:00:05 +0000

You rolled out Copilot, Cursor, or Claude Code across hundreds of engineers. Six months in, the productivity lift is real but smaller than the slide deck promised — and uneven, with some development teams flying and others barely moving.  The AI isn’t underperforming. Your codebase is forcing it to. The new cost of carrying unused... … continue reading

Security Can’t Be an Afterthought as AI Agents Reshape DevOps
Wed, 29 Jul 2026 12:15:48 +0000

The engineering teams winning with AI agents right now share one trait: they stopped treating security as a gate at the end of the pipeline and started treating it as a design constraint from the beginning. That shift sounds simple, but it runs counter to how most organizations have approached AI adoption. Move fast, secure... … continue reading
