USE CASE 01 / SENIOR DEVELOPER

One senior. Several active repos.

A company buys back time from a senior developer who already has capable agents. Keep their current agent stack as the starting point.

THE WORKFLOW

What would be delegated.

01Collect eligible CI failures and maintenance tasks.
02Apply the repo's existing checks and approval policy.
03Return a reviewable PR with a concise run history.

Where the value comes from.

Keep senior attention on the work that needs it. A senior operator can centralize recurring work while keeping existing agents and review standards. The model below makes the operational trade-offs visible.

Your rollout checklist

Count accepted outcomes, including the cost of failed attempts.
Compare with the same task handled by the existing setup.
Check whether recovered time becomes useful engineering capacity.
Verify project access and review controls in the actual environment.

Key cost drivers

Fewer eligible tasks, higher review time, integration work, or extra model spend can remove the projected return. No avoided incident or additional revenue is included.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Ask for your own evidence.

Define the baseline, cost ceiling, and acceptance checks for your team.
