This article compares the traditional Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with the emerging 'agentic SDLC' approach, which incorporates AI agents into the software development process.

Augment's Cosmos platform enables AI agents to handle the full software development lifecycle, dramatically reducing code review time from hours to minutes by automating routine checks and focusing humans on design decisions.

Shubham Saboo announced a free 50-page guide on shifting from vibe coding to agentic engineering, covering the AI agents-based software development life cycle.

Devin is positioned as an AI Engineering platform covering the entire software development lifecycle, from planning to documentation, with integrations and features that enhance developer experience.

The next era of AI software development moves coding agents into production; Cognition introduces Devin Auto-Triage for automated incident response and PR generation.

The article argues that AI-native software engineering, where agents assist throughout the full software development lifecycle, yields much higher productivity gains than applying AI only to code generation, citing Gartner and McKinsey research and Ascendion's experience with 10,000+ agents in production.
