Speed limits, GenAI coding agents and Autobahns - part 2: raising the safe speed

Part 1 developed a driving metaphor for GenAI-based development: you are the driver, the coding agent and its harness are the car, and your code and delivery system are the road. And in the same way that the road determines how fast you can drive, the characteristics of the code and the socio-technical architecture around it determine how fast you should let the agent generate code, and how much cognitive debt, if any, is acceptable. Part 1 also covered the first of the three ways of working with a coding agent: understand the road - what condition the code and the socio-technical architecture
