Coding agents are extending from writing code into operating software

In one minute

GitHub Copilot can triage issues, fix failures in a cloud sandbox, and open pull requests from Slack or Teams. Cursor’s planned acquisition of Firetiger extends agents toward monitoring rollouts and investigating incidents.

Together, these developments point to coding agents participating in both delivery and production response, not just code generation.
