Understand AI. Shape what comes next.
agentic as design
AI is changing how we think, create and work. Mainframe explores the ideas behind that shift – and what we can make of them.
01 / Perspectives
When agents join the work.
Developers review more code. Operations teams delegate new tasks. Every new capability raises a question: who gets to decide?
- Software development
From writing code to reviewing PRs.
Agents write code. Developers set the scope, review changes and bring the work together. What that means for everyday software development.
- DevOps & system administration
An agent doesn’t need a master key.
Read logs, investigate incidents, prepare changes. How agents can help operations with their own identities and carefully scoped permissions.
- Permissions & responsibility
Risk starts with what’s possible.
A wrong conclusion and too much access can be enough. Using agents also means deciding on permissions, approvals and the consequences of a mistake.
