petrusenko_max · x · 2026-07-31
Riley Brown recently discussed the growing demand for collaborative AI agents in knowledge work teams. While the market wants team-wide solutions akin to Codex or GPT, a one-size-fits-all approach struggles due to differences in company size, communication styles, and missions.
Setting up Slack agents is just the beginning; the real challenge lies in engineering maintenance. This includes managing permissions, onboarding new members, building evaluation (evals) systems, and handling model skills, internal docs, version control, and bug fixes. There is a severe lack of benchmark cases for team agent workflows that run smoothly and see widespread adoption across all members.
