What this session covers

If you’re building devtools for humans, you’re building for the past.

Already a quarter of Y Combinator’s latest batch used AI to write 95% or more of their code. AI agents are scaling at an exponential rate and soon, they’ll outnumber human developers by orders of magnitude.

The real bottleneck isn’t intelligence. It’s tooling. Terminals, local machines, and dashboards weren’t built for agents. They make do… until they can’t.

In this talk, I’ll share how we killed the CLI at Daytona, rebuilt our infrastructure from first principles, and what it takes to build devtools that agents can actually use. Because in an agent-native future, if agents can’t use your tool, no one will.
