The dream all-AI-agent dev pipeline… and its weak spot
Picture this: you have built the (hypothetical) dream AI dev pipeline.
Agents that:
- investigate the needs
- inspect the existing code
- churn out the specs
- implement them
- do the review
- test
- handle the deployment
- monitor production
- do user research
- iterate
All of it absolutely perfectly, without any human supervision, 100% through Claude tools.
… and then Anthropic botches an update, and for 3 days the agents become completely dumb.
Good luck.
That’s why I always keep a human in the loop.
