Assigning issues to agents that actually create the entire PR is great, until you need to test what they wrote. Here's how we configured an end-to-end preview environment for Jellypod using Supabase, WorkOS, and Vercel to test agent-written PRs without ever testing the code locally.
It took 2 hours and $25 in tokens. When AI can create software overnight for a few dollars, why spend hundreds per month on SaaS?
I haven't opened a code editor in weeks. AI writes all my code. But my passion was never about writing code — it was about building cool things.
Software development and cooking are strangely more similar than they might first appear.
