Engineer proposes cross-engineer agent-to-agent communication as human becomes the bottleneck

thomasahle · x · 2026-11-09

Developer thomasahle argues that as engineers manage larger teams of agents, humans become the communication bottleneck — maybe it's time to enable cross-engineer agent-to-agent communication.

Agents could negotiate API changes, prevent conflicting work, request UI changes, notify each other about failing tests, and give expert guidance on using a system. He asks whether GitHub is enough, or whether agents need a more open communication layer, seeking views on tools like @agentrelay.
