How to constrain a coding agent using only files you own
Learn to constrain a coding agent using files you own by understanding and implementing four key levers: instruction, constraint, capability, and charter.
Anatomy of an Agentic Code Review
Explore how coding agents transform code review processes by increasing PR volumes, highlighting the need for agentic workflows to handle rapid development cycles.
Your AI isn’t stupid. It’s blind
AI agents struggle with incomplete data, not intelligence. Building effective memory systems is crucial for agents to navigate organizational knowledge accurately.
A context driven code review that learns and improves on every run
Tessl's context-driven code review integrates with software development, improving code generation and maintenance by learning from past reviews and enhancing standards.
Engineering a Context-Driven Software Factory
Explore how context-driven software factories enable agents to handle complex tasks, requiring engineering practices to ensure reliable decision-making and automation.
AI DevCon NYC: From Coding Agents to Software Factories
Curating a conference is an interesting way to see where an industry is heading, because the program tends to reveal which questions have already become accepted and which ones people are only star
Merge Rate Measures Whether AI Adoption Is Real
The horror-story version of my talk title was "When our PM started writing code." But the real question was not whether product managers and designers can open pull requests. The real question was
Jev is 13.6x faster and 2.7x cheaper than GPT Luna 6 for Tessl verifiers. Try it yourself
Jev, TypeSafe's new decision model, is 13.6x faster and 2.7x cheaper than GPT Luna 6 for Tessl verifiers, offering a cost-effective and efficient solution.
Tessl is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant
Today, we're excited to announce that Tessl has completed our SOC 2 Type II audit. This milestone underscores our commitment to protecting customer data and gives you clear visibility into the security practices behind the platform. As the Security & Compliance lead at Tessl, I want to share what this means for you and how we'll keep raising the bar as we grow. Visit the Tessl Trust Center to view our security documentation and request our SOC 2 report. Why SOC 2 Now?
Agent Experience Is The Next Product Surface
At AI Native DevCon London, I talked about agent experience, or AX, because the builder persona has changed. The people our platforms were originally built for are no longer only professional devel
AI Agent Evaluation Starts With Evidence
I love tests. I have always liked tests, and AI has made me think about testing even more. If AI is going to help us write production code, the important question is not whether it can generate a l
Spec-Driven Development Works When Specs Are System Use Cases
The story that led me into spec-driven development started with a volunteer management system.
What I Took Away From Lars Trieloff: Browser Agents Need Explicit Agent Experience
Browser-native agents are compelling because they live close to the user's work. That proximity also makes safety, scoping, and interface design more important.
Collective Intelligence Starts With Attributed Mistakes
How attributed mistakes, provenance, and measured corrections help agent teams turn isolated failures into durable collective intelligence.
Context-Driven Factories
Software factories are the frontier of agentic software development. They promise a compounding development process that gets cheaper, faster, and better every week. But most teams struggle to build factories that deliver these compounding outcomes. Their buildout stalls, or the gains are merely incremental.
Who Owns your/the Context?
Explore the complexities of context ownership in agentic transformations, focusing on workflows, processes, and the critical role of explicit ownership models.
