AI agents are no longer experimental side projects — they’re reshaping how developers build, manage and ship software.
In Episode 11 of Agents of Dev, hosts Mitch Ashley and Brad Shimmin unpack the rapid rise of open-source AI agent frameworks, the acquisition ripple effects across the market, and what it means for IDEs, developer workflows and enterprise control planes.
The discussion covers:
• Why agent interfaces are evolving beyond traditional IDEs
• The importance of memory and context management
• Control planes for agentic systems
• Observability-native software design
• The gravity of data in an AI-driven world
• Open-source forks, innovation cycles and collapse of time-to-value
As agentic systems mature, developers are moving from writing code line-by-line to orchestrating intent, context and automation across entire stacks.
This isn’t just smarter autocomplete.
It’s a structural shift in how software gets built.
