Handing Over the SDLC: How Far Agents Actually Get

Assistants made coding faster without making delivery faster. I’ll cover what changes when agents take on whole units of work across the SDLC, where the handoff holds up, and where it breaks.

Lessons from enterprise rollouts: how to avoid a different tool per team, establish context that people and agents actually use, and lay the environment engineering foundation so agents can build, test, and verify their own output (so you don’t babysit them).

It’s going to be fun!
