@abstractcode Yeah it's highly dependent on the codebase, the complexity of the problem and how "common" the stuff you're doing is. Had zero success in one org with niche tech but have found it useful and productive in another org with stricter base architecture and a good set of agent rules.

The unpredictability of when it's useful is the big problem though: building a mental model based on non-deterministic outcomes is basically impossible.

@abstractcode @daisy our team uses AI coding assistants a fair bit but if anyone ever said "the AI did it" in a PR review those would be grounds for an instant rejection of the PR.

There's an ongoing debate on whether these actually are useful or worsen the codebase in the long term but code ownership has to be non-negotiable for any of this stuff to work.
