Have you tried an asynchronous agent coding flow? They were relatively rare until last week. But it took that for me to see the value. Now I happily queue up 4 or 5 tasks in the morning, come back at lunch to check in/feedback or merge at lunch, rinse and repeat.

It doesn’t replace the hard tasks (yet) and you do need to think about the tasks and the tooling but it’s a game changer.

I wasn’t kidding in a peer comment (except about the mars cheese castle). I started an agent task before leaving on a trip and gave it feedback from my iPad when I stopped. I have a real business problem solved now.
