Agent-Proof Your Rails App: Your Codebase Is the Prompt

Copilot Coding Agent Engineering, GitHub

When AI agents write code in your repo, your codebase becomes the context window. Messy conventions, implicit knowledge that lives in people's heads, and inconsistent patterns aren't just tech debt anymore — they're the reason the agent writes bad code. Working on GitHub's agent platform, I've seen firsthand what makes codebases easy or hard for agents to work in. With real before-and-after examples, you'll leave with a playbook for making your Rails app agent-friendly — which also makes it more human-friendly.
