The adoption of AI coding agents is fundamentally shifting the developer's role from manual implementation to high-level orchestration, where the focus moves toward reviewing automated Pull Requests and managing parallel tasks. While some enthusiasts embrace a future where direct source code inspection becomes the exception, skeptics remain wary of "driving blind," arguing that "vibe coding" without local verification risks creating a mountain of sloppy, unmaintainable code. To reconcile these perspectives, many developers are adopting a hybrid workflow, using agents to generate initial PRs while maintaining quality through persistent markdown plans and local checkouts for manual testing.
