The most important thing you need to understand with working with agents for coding is that now you design a production line. And that has nothing to do (mostly) with designing or orchestrating agents.
Take a guitar, for example. You don't industrialize the manufacture of guitars by speeding up the same practices that artisans used to build them. You don't create machines that resemble individual artisans in their previous roles (like everyone seems to be trying to do with AI and software). You become Leo Fender, and you design a new kind of guitar that is made to be manufactured at another level of scale magnitude. You need to be Leo Fender though (not a talented guitarrist, but definitely a technical master).
To me, it sounds too early to describe patterns, since we haven't met the Ford/Fender/etc equivalent of this yet. I do appreciate the attempt though.
The machines in factory production lines are generally very deterministic. Not sure how well industrialisation would have worked if the machines just did whatever.
Again, this word "deterministic". It means nothing anymore.
When you see a sorting machine that jiggles lots of pieces so they align, that's because pieces don't align naturally. It's a fix for chaos, for things that naturally behave like "doing whatever".
Industrial machinery is full of this in all sorts of places. Even in precision engineering. Press-fits and interference-fits, etc. We deal with lack of precision all the time.
Engineers are _absolute chads_ on this kind of thing. We tame chaos like no other professional.
