The Rise of Local CI Tooling. Thanks AI Coding Agents!

During AI Engineer Paris:

AI-powered coding agents are everywhere. They help us write boilerplate and boring code, surprise us by generating features, or even build entire applications. And this is more than a passing trend: agents are already part of our daily workflow. But the unwritten aspect is that our role as developers is shifting. Our code is no longer written by us alone. We now need to review, orchestrate, integrate the work of multiple autonomous agents, sometimes across multiple codebases. In a sense, we are becoming something that once sounded outdated: integrators. To help us in this new, critical, role, we need tools. We need local Continuous Integration tools: the kind that also integrates well with coding agents. And the good news is those tools already exist in the open-source world, container-use to offer a proper isolated environment for coding agents, and dagger to continuously integrate the generated code.
