New essay proposes embedding coding agents directly into regular apps
threepointone · x · 2026-07-21
A quoted post points to a new article, “One document, two hands,” which argues for an alternative interaction model for agentic apps: instead of standalone coding tools, embed “coding agents” harnesses directly into regular applications.
The author says this is a written version of a talk delivered at Local First Conf, framing the idea as a product and UX pattern for how agentic software should live inside normal apps.
