AI Agents Can Ship Code Faster Than You Can Review It. Here's What Stops Them.

Most teams running AI agents have no enforcement at the git layer. Here's what's quietly building in your repo — and the two-line defence that stops it. An AI agent just wrote and committed 47 files. Did you review all of them? Probably not. Nobody does. That's the point — agents move faster than review. And if nothing is enforcing standards at the git layer, bad code reaches the repo at the same speed the agent writes it. This is the problem quality gates were built for. It used to be a slow, human-speed problem. Now it's urgent. The Migration That Broke Everything (And What Actually Saved It) Three years ago I was maintaining a white-label registry platform — a government web app powering multiple clients. We had to migrate from Vue 2 to Vue 3. Vue 3 changed almost everything: the reactivity system, the component model, the entire ecosystem. Some of that pain was inevitable. But the wall we hit in the first hour? That was ours. The terminal had thousands of errors. Some components we
