Why I stopped babysitting coding agents

说明与用途

开发者构建了一个多代理的自治流水线，取代手动代码审查，提高质量并减少疲劳。

问题

A solo developer was repeatedly reviewing code generated by a coding agent, leading to fatigue and suboptimal code quality.

结果

The autonomous pipeline eliminated the daily babysitting tax, produced higher‑quality code, and allowed the developer to focus on product and mobile work.

工作流

• Define global rules and layer‑specific conventions in files
• Create a planner agent to split requests into layer‑specific tasks
• Implement tasks with dedicated implementer agents per layer
• Run automated reviewers (parity, layer, end‑of‑branch, skeptic) that only write findings
• Fix findings automatically or manually, re‑run reviews
• Run browser tester agent to validate feature
• Update documentation and push branch
• Notify developer for final hand‑on review and merge

证据

I was faster than before, I ended every day drained, and the code was not even that good.

The first reports came back with things I would have missed, or things I would have been too tired to look for by the tenth file.

Once the reviews were trustworthy, letting the whole thing run without me was mostly plumbing.
