Is it too soon to built software factories?
I keep hearing about “software factories” / background coding agents that can autonomously work on production repos. It seems like the capabilities are there, but not sure if we have the right tools yet.
There are already some companies providing software for this like ona/factory/codex/claude/cursor
Open-source alternatives - https://github.com/ColeMurray/background-agents
Big companies like stripe/ramp/uber/spotify built their own background-agents infrastructure
But nothing seems to be mature enough to just work fine. Is it too soon?
