Coding Agents Won’t Be Won by Prompts, but by Runtime Infrastructure
As coding agents become more capable, the bottleneck shifts from model quality to the infrastructure that supports long-running tasks, including durable state, permissions, checkpoints, observability, and cost controls. The author argues that the best agent products resemble runtime and workflow systems rather than just improved prompt interfaces.
How do you make agents run for hours, and what architectures are actually agent-friendly?#deep-dive #vibe-coder-issues
