Drowning in AI pull requests: Harness's field CTO on code review and a Git repo built for agents

Drowning in AI pull requests: Harness's field CTO on code review and a Git repo built for agents7. Sept.26 Min.

Harness Field CTO Martin Reynolds joins The New Stack to talk about what happens after coding agents start opening pull requests faster than anyone can review them. He explains how he first saw the bottleneck during early GitHub Copilot trials, the three ways enterprises are coping with the volume now, and why Harness rebuilt its Code Repository and launched AI Code Review for agent traffic. The conversation also covers GitHub's recent outages, the software delivery knowledge graph behind Harness's reviewer, and how much of the delivery pipeline should stay deterministic.
