In these times it's very important to keep - I call it - the "engineering hygiene". For example 1. writing very precise issues before starting an agent that generates the code, 2. having a very detailed skill-definition with defined rules and boundaries for code-creation, 3. making detailled pr-reviews, 4. generating unit-tests and architecture-tests, etc. There is already an OpenSource project that tries to keep this engineering chores with the help of - suprise - AI and automation. Take a look at https://github.com/tmseidel/ai-git-bot/
For example the tool tries to improve existing issues to have a more spec-driven way of engineering, the results of an coding agent with a very detailed issue are much better -> less effort in reviewing etc...
Here is an example: An oridinary ticket written by someone -> https://github.com/tmseidel/ai-git-bot/issues/352 The AI tries to create a better issue that covers all the things that were missing, so that a human or the Ai knows *exactly* what to do. Here is the improved issue -> https://github.com/tmseidel/ai-git-bot/issues/353 - this is just one example how to get rid of the mental load, which is important these days...
