The New Software Creator: Why AI Changes the Governance Problem, Not Just the Speed Problem

The conversation about AI and software development has mostly been about velocity. Developers write code faster. Pull requests ship sooner. Backlogs shrink. That part is real, and it matters. But there's a bigger shift happening underneath it, and most engineering leaders I talk to are only just starting to feel its weight. AI hasn't just made developers faster. It has fundamentally expanded who can create and ship software. That changes things in ways that velocity metrics don't capture.

Cut your environment setup time in half with Chunk sidecar snapshots

When you’re building with AI, you can get a lot done in 30 seconds. Waiting minutes for CI feedback on your latest change can feel like an eternity. Chunk sidecars are designed to give you feedback fast, running your full test suite against the same Linux environment as CI, directly inside the agentic loop. Traditional CI pipelines can take five or ten minutes to catch a basic lint error or failing unit test.
