How we built a software factory to handle 6x more product feedback

TL;DR As our two-engineer Cosmos Advisor team shipped more automations to more customers, weekly product feedback grew rapidly - reaching 30+ feedback-threads per week. Investigating questions,

The software factory needs a faster review loop: further optimizing the path from PR to merge

TL;DR In an AI-native engineering organization, generating code is no longer the slowest part of shipping software. Review, verification, repair, and human decision-making become the bottlenecks, and

What is loop engineering and how are leading software engineering teams using it?

“Loop engineering” is having a big moment right now. Boris Cherny mentioned that he doesn’t prompt Claude anymore, he writes loops. Peter Steinberger posted a monthly reminder to stop prompting

The bottleneck moved to verification. So we automated that too.

Internally, a significant amount of engineering time is consumed by manually verifying that the code an agent writes works E2E in dev. We sought to change that. We built an internal agent, the

Agents can now run the full SDLC in Cosmos. What do engineers do?

Last month I opened a roughly 1,000-line PR. The colleague I asked to review it looked at it and said, “Okay, give me 45 minutes. I’ll do it now.” A year ago, that same engineer would have said, “This

Scaling incident management for an AI-native organization using Cosmos

As coding and code review become increasingly automated in AI-native organizations, one of the next major bottlenecks is incident management. On-call engineers are often unable to contribute

Opus 4.7 for 33% less: How Auggie beats Claude Code on cost and quality

TL;DR: We benchmarked Auggie vs Claude Code on Opus 4.7. Auggie takes a modest lead in quality (67.4% vs 66.3% pass rate) while costing ~33% less, thanks to sharper retrieval that results in token

More code, faster reviews: how we rebuilt code review at Augment using Cosmos

TL;DR. When agents write 100% of your code, the bottleneck moves to review: at one point we had 1,400 open PRs and a 20-hour median time-to-first-comment. We rebuilt the review process on Cosmos as a

We don't need more agents. We need a better system. So we built one.

Today we're putting Augment Cosmos into public preview. Cosmos is the operating system for agentic software development: agents that run anywhere (your env, our cloud) and work across your SDLC,

AI transformation is a systems problem

Every engineering leader I talk to is trying to transform. They want their teams to be AI-native. They're rolling out tools, tracking adoption, watching dashboards. But the harder questions are the

A good AGENTS.md is a model upgrade. A bad one is worse than no docs at all.

We pulled dozens of AGENTS.md files from across our monorepo and measured their effect on code generation. The best ones gave our coding agent a quality jump equivalent to upgrading from Haiku to

The era of single-model engineering is over

Thirteen months ago, I wrote a post arguing that model pickers were a design failure: the tool should pick the model. Developers should focus on shipping. This month, we added Gemini 3.1 Pro to
