    Networking reception

Code generation was the easy part.

Agents handle feature work well. They are worse at the change nobody wants to own: the framework three versions behind, the vulnerability that spans the whole estate, the migration that touches every service.

The teams on stage have shipped that work at scale. They will talk about how they decide a change is safe to land, what verification costs next to the tokens, and why a correct automated pull request still sits unmerged.
