The Core Idea
Agentic SDLC means using agents across the software delivery lifecycle: clarifying requirements, generating implementation options, editing code, writing tests, reviewing changes, preparing releases, and investigating incidents.
The gain is not that humans disappear. The gain is that repetitive loops move faster while humans stay accountable for direction, review, and release decisions.
- Agents accelerate loops.
- Humans own intent, risk, and acceptance.
- The system must leave evidence behind.
