AI & Engineering

These articles are about what happens after a model can write code. Review capacity, post-merge maintenance, and supply-chain risk show up once generation gets faster. MCP is covered as a way enterprise factories connect tools. The DORA 2024 piece is about delivery stability, not a claim that a model is fast.

Other posts look at enterprise ROI, why agent pilots stay pilots, and when a team actually needs a coding factory. The common thread is an operating model: small batches, a review gate, and a person who owns the merge. Use this category to pressure-test an agent rollout before you add more agents.

Why AI-Generated Code Is a Supply-Chain Risk

AI-generated code is the top supply chain threat in 2026 because it accelerates vulnerable, ungoverned dependency growth faster than security teams can patch.

What Is MCP for Enterprise Software Factories?

MCP is the open context layer that lets enterprise agent factories connect AI agents to real systems, at scale, without an N by M integration mess.

When an Engineering Team Needs a Coding Factory

A coding factory is a repeatable line for code changes. Use one when the same job keeps arriving. Skip it when every change is a one-off.
