Loops are the new leverage — and whoever gets there first pulls away fast. But a loop with no eval is a confident-mistake machine and one with no halt is a billing surprise. ApexYard ships the skills and the eval layer that make a loop safe, so you start this week, not next quarter.
I kept running out of context, the plan kept drifting, and the agent was overwhelmed as the project grew. So I stopped treating it as a tool and started treating it as an engineering team.
AI coding agents make dozens of technical decisions per session, and none of them get documented. Agent Decision Records (AgDR) fix this.
An AI agent is operationally equivalent to your fastest, most reckless engineer. That confidence will ship bugs just as fast as features.
AI adoption is different from previous tech waves because it breaks the constant of human speed. When code generation outpaces review capacity, teams converge faster on whatever their system naturally tends toward.
Results from my poll of 682 tech professionals. 95% of developers and 84% of engineering managers now use AI daily. See which tools are most popular and how teams are adopting AI.
