Carl and I talked deeply about CLI-based AI agents, specifically Claude Code, how CLI AI agents are more composable than IDE-based agents like Cursor, spec-driven development, making codebases agent-native, and, last but not least, which skills should we hone as software engineers, because our profession is not going anywhere, but we need to adapt. Super interesting conversation, hope you enjoy!
