The Case for Agentic Coding in Daily Development
Agentic tools didn't replace my judgment — they removed the boring 60% so I can spend more time on the hard 40%.
Adopting agentic coding changed my throughput more than any framework ever did. Delegating the mechanical work — scaffolding, test stubs, repetitive refactors — frees attention for architecture and edge cases, where the real value is.
The skill isn't typing prompts; it's decomposition. I break a task into verifiable steps, give the agent tight context, and review every diff like I would a junior's PR. The agent is fast; I am the one accountable for correctness.
Used well, this is a 60% accelerant. Used lazily, it's a bug factory. The difference is entirely in how rigorously you specify and verify.
