We've been experimenting with running coding agents autonomously for weeks at a time.
Blog / research We've been experimenting with running coding agents autonomously for weeks. Our goal is to understand how far we can push the frontier of agentic coding for projects that typically take human teams months to complete. This post describes what we've learned from running hundreds of concurrent agents on a single project, coordinating their work, and watching them write over a million lines of code and trillions of tokens. # The limits of a single agent Today's agents work well for focused tasks, but are slow for complex projects. The natural next step is to run multiple agents in
