I’ve spent countless hours using some issue tracking software or another in my career, especially when in leadership roles. While apps like Jira or Azure DevOps are good, there is a lot of repetitiveness and potential for automation. LLMs and coding agents open the door to implement automations, but also connecting all sorts of agentic workflows to that software. For context, I’m a solo developer working on a SaaS project in the area of observability.

Originally posted in Obics.io The Brilliant New Hire With No Memory While LLM coding agents are extremely smart, they are pretty stupid about your own project. They don’t know what your app is trying to do, the architecture, or anything really. It’s like a very smart software developer on their first day in the office. No matter how smart they are, they won’t contribute much in their first month of work because you need domain-specific knowledge.
