Let AI build software. Keep engineering in control.
The Software world of Software Delivery, an example World shown as a galaxy.
Coding agents can write fast. But code generation alone doesn't guarantee that changes follow the team's state, policy, review and release rules.
Four people, each with an agent, work on their own threads and rules outside any World; the hand-offs between them break.
Issue · Change · Review · Release · Incident
The Software world with its 5 core objects—Issue, Change, Review, Release and Incident—connected by relationships.
Planned → Building → In review → Released
One representative state flow on the World's orbit: Planned, then Building, then In review, then Released.
Builder / Test / Review Agents + Engineering lead
The agent that writes the code can't approve it. Production release needs a human.
COMMITTED RELEASED
Builder agent, Test agent and Review agent work with the Engineering lead above the World. One Policy holds two Gates: Writer ≠ approver and Release needs a human. The Review agent proposes, the final-transition Gate decides, the Engineering lead approves, and only then the work commits to Released.
