One engineer shipped 2,000 PRs a month to production. Verification is the key.

The New Stack · 1 month ago · 32

Lauren Tan describes a coding-agent workflow (pstack) that lets one engineer ship changes end-to-end with automated self-verification. She reports 2,000 pull requests a month reaching production, and argues human review cannot keep up at that volume. As a result, teams need verification-focused runtime environments that isolate hundreds of concurrent agent changes while still exercising real dependencies, with environments created and discarded by agents rather than provisioned manually by platform teams.
