Report: coding agents boost code volume, but reliable software delivery lags

A recommended report on 'agents beyond code generation' argues that while coding agents raise how much code gets written, gains shrink sharply between writing code and shipping reliable software. It pulls together field studies, benchmark audits, and production reports from 2024 through September 2026, finding that review, integration, testing, security, and deployment remain the constraining stages.
