Until it doesn&amp;rsquo;t.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;The context fills up and the rules get compacted away. A subagent starts fresh and never saw them. Two skills say different things. Then the branch is &lt;code&gt;feat/add-export&lt;/code&gt; on Monday and &lt;code&gt;add-export-feature&lt;/code&gt; on Tuesday, a commit has no footer, a &lt;code&gt;.env&lt;/code&gt; file gets staged.&lt;/p&gt;</description><media:content xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://ancuta.org/posts/give-your-ai-agent-tools-not-just-instructions/featured.png"/></item><item><title>From Ticket to Green PR: Automating the Whole Dev Loop with an AI Agent Harness</title><link>https://ancuta.org/posts/from-ticket-to-green-pr-with-an-ai-agent-harness/</link><pubDate>Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ancuta.org/posts/from-ticket-to-green-pr-with-an-ai-agent-harness/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Most AI coding workflows stop where the fun ends: the agent writes code, and you do the rest.
