AI Coding Tools Are Becoming Agent Workspaces
IDEs are turning into agent workspaces where you supervise multiple parallel tasks.
Trend context
Cursor, Codex, and Claude Code are converging on the same pattern: a workspace where you kick off agent tasks and review results.
Why it matters
The unit of work shifts from 'edit' to 'task', and reviewing becomes the main developer skill.
Who should care
Developers, engineering managers, and tool builders.
FAQ
Do I still write code?
Yes — but the ratio of writing to reviewing tilts toward review.
