Developer predicts AI coding agents will absorb software factory orchestration within months

A developer argues that orchestration products such as Factory and Warp will lose value as coding agents become more capable, expecting much of their coordination to be absorbed within three to six months. Building an AI RPG port to iOS, they report merging about 100 pull requests a day for a week, roughly five times their earlier pace, while working part-time. Their workflow relies on several AI models and a custom skill-based process in which they set outcomes and constraints while agents implement, test and gather evidence. They recommend that companies encode their own standards in shared skills and guardrails while keeping permissions, testing and merge authority clear. They also suggest periodically removing workflow layers after model upgrades to check whether simpler setups still meet requirements.
