@sahildarz That’s a useful distinction, especially the silent regressions. Contract tests → visual diff → human review sounds like a solid sequence. Which regressions have your contract tests caught most often?

AI coding agents can ship PRs fast, but verification is the real bottleneck. Use tests, contract checks, visual diffs & human review to keep AI code shippable. https://t.co/XSLz5GpkZv

Your next hire may not be engineer #2. If releases stall on decisions, handoffs & admin, an Ops/PM “finisher” can ship more than another builder. https://t.co/6GyxxEo1RC #Startups

@kidtsang Well said. The best AI coding tools are getting better at repo context, but team conventions, trade-offs, and "why we do it this way" still need humans. Give agents clear context and review the output; that's where the real balance lives.
