CLI or IDE? Build in verification first
The New Stack 1 month ago 42 ● 3 sources
AI coding agents have intensified a debate about whether changes should be generated and reviewed in IDEs or CLIs, but the article argues the real issue is how teams verify proposed code before it spreads. It says teams should use a layered verification loop including local checks, pull request checks, and CI as a backstop where CI should confirm earlier work rather than be the first place issues are found. As a result, workflows shift to build-in controls that travel with the agent output in either environment, make project context available to the agent, and design for human review rather than faster code generation.
