The agent is replaceable: a web dev's framework for production-ready AI coding agent workflows
Key_Ad_2747 · reddit · 2026-09-11
A web developer argues the hard part of agentic coding is no longer code generation but the surrounding system. His stack includes a per-repo knowledge base, reusable skills/rules encoding conventions, automated local onboarding, a structured issue → develop → verify → complete workflow, and mandatory pre-completion checks — designed so the agent itself is swappable. He names open pain points: non-deterministic onboarding, context bloat, overlapping rules, and manual intervention. He also asks whether a real control plane exists: a local, open-source, agent-agnostic layer above GitHub that manages multiple repos, assigns tasks to parallel agents in isolated worktrees, and keeps GitHub Issues as source of truth (issue → task → agent → workspace → verification → PR).
