once you go background agent, you never go back. today our AI for code company Augment Code launched remote agents. delegate coding tasks & walk away, come back when it’s done to review & approve.

The #1 problem with coding agents right now: Ask them to solve one problem, and they will make 10 other changes you didn't want. This happens to me every day. It happens to everyone I talk to as well. We have a solution for this now. The team Augment Code released a "Task List" feature for their coding assistant that solves this problem. Augment Code is partnering with me on this post. In case you haven't used them before: • Augment Code is a fully-fledged coding assistant • Their specialty are large projects • Fastest coding indexing I've seen • Has a free forever community edition Now, you can ask their coding agent to generate a Task List before doing anything. This will give you a plan you can review, edit, and augment if you need to. You can export this plan, load it on a different session, or even share it across projects. It makes a huge difference: The task list constrains the agent so you won't get any "unintended" changes anymore. It also puts you in control of everything the agent does. Check the video to see the agent working through a task list. You can also try this 100% free: (By the way, they also have support for remote agents. You can basically have those agents write your code while you are sleeping.)

The bottleneck in coding is now the time it takes a human to review agent-generated code. But existing review UIs don't work well for agents. So we built a new one into Amp.

This approach has made Sonnet the model of choice for developers worldwide. In addition to our new model, we're launching Claude Code, our first coding tool, in a limited research preview. With Claude Code, you can delegate substantial tasks to Claude—right from your terminal.

Simplest way to create an AI agent today: You don't need to write any code. You don't need to build a workflow. You can literally build agents that complete useful tasks for you using a single prompt. Check the quick video I recorded!

Knowledge graphs are infinitely better than vector search for building the memory of AI agents. With five lines of code, you can build a knowledge graph with your data. When you see the results, you'll never go back to vector-mediocrity-land. Here is a quick video:

It’s getting insanely easy to build complex multi-agent systems in n8n. You can now build supervisor agents that delegates tasks to specialized sub agents. Just add the sub agents via AI Agent Tool node. All in one place and a lot easier to debug! Zero code!

Interestingly, as we have AI agents that run in the background, the speed of AI becomes incrementally less important than the core underlying capability level. When you could only give AI small bits of work, then the speed of response mattered a ton. The rate at which you can go back and forth with AI in real-time was the determining factor on how useful it is. But as AI agents can perform more complex and useful tasks in parallel behind the scenes, you can much more easily afford to wait longer for work to get done assuming it’s valuable. Now the focus becomes more on how you review and orchestrate the agents’ work. And the main factor is just how useful and usable is the output that the agent came back with.
