AI agents (in software delivery)
Specialized AI workers (scope, code, QA, DevOps...) that draft work for human review.
AI agents in software delivery are specialized, role-scoped assistants - for scoping, architecture, code, QA, DevOps, documentation, review, and PM - that accelerate a delivery phase by drafting work which senior engineers then review and approve.
Used well, agents need a hierarchy and explicit permissions: a master agent coordinates, leader agents own workstreams, and specialist agents execute narrow tasks, escalating anything ambiguous.
Agents never push to production unattended in a governed setup; they open pull requests and surface drafts for human decisions.
