However, as coding agents truly enter production environments, more realistic issues begin to emerge: errors are magnified, complexity spirals out of control, systems gradually become incomprehensible, and improvements in efficiency do not proportionately translate into enhancements in quality.
This article is based on frontline practices, regarding this wave of "agentic
