Can agentic coding raise the quality bar?
Five examples of using agentic coding to improve software quality, instead of delivery throughput.
My Agentic Coding Setup, July 2026
With the right tools, coding agents can run autonomously, in parallel, and be reachable from anywhere. Here's how I've stitched them together.

Qwen3-Coder: Agentic Coding in the World
GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DISCORD Today, we’re announcing Qwen3-Coder, our most agentic code model to date. Qwen3-Coder is available in multiple sizes, but we’re excited to introduce its most powerful variant first: Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct — a 480B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with 35B active parameters which supports the context length of 256K tokens natively and 1M tokens with extrapolation methods, offering exceptional performance in both coding and agentic tasks. Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct sets new state-of-the-art results among open models on Agentic Coding, Agentic Browser-Use, and Agentic Tool-Use, comparable to Claude Sonnet 4.

Code execution with MCP: building more efficient AI agents
Learn how code execution with the Model Context Protocol enables agents to handle more tools while using fewer tokens, reducing context overhead by up to 98.7%.
Prime Agent: A self-improving RLM agent
Prime Agent is our open-source, self-improving coding harness built around two abstractions: the Recursive Language Model (RLM) and the Continual Harness. With Opus 5, it achieves 95.5% on ARC-AGI-3, surpassing the reported human expert baseline.
Code Is Cheap Now, And That Changes Everything | Pere Villega
AI coding agents have made code production nearly free. Drawing on insights from Kent Beck, Paul Ford, and Simon Willison, this post argues that the value has shifted from writing code to defining systems — contracts, invariants, SLAs, and verification.
Vibe coding and agentic engineering are getting closer than I’d like
I recently talked with Joseph Ruscio about AI coding tools for Heavybit’s High Leverage podcast: Ep. #9, The AI Coding Paradigm Shift with Simon Willison. Here are some of my …
