Field notes from teams shipping AI into production
Practical writing on agentic AI, application modernization, and product engineering. No hype, no recycled trend pieces. Just what worked, what broke, and what we would do differently next time.
An AI coding agent will write confident code against assumptions it invented. On a 12-year-old codebase, that is where the bugs come from. What the agent has to understand first, and how to brief it.
Most companies are paying an invisible tax on their AI initiative. It isn’t the pilot. It’s the evaluation phase. A short read for senior leaders who already know which workflow they would automate first, but haven’t said it out loud yet.
Agentic AI does not have to be a multi-quarter program. Here is what we tell every CTO before the first line of agent code is written, and why the first production agent can ship in weeks when the right decisions are made in advance.
