AI coding tools like Claude Code and Codex are transforming how software engineers work, with some developers using up to four agents simultaneously. But the promise of always-on automation clashes with reality: agents delete inboxes, create security vulnerabilities, and require constant supervision. Silicon Valley now prizes 'agentic' individuals who can manage these tools effectively.
