Curiously, this is where automated checks, that people have known are useful for years but haven't been implementing widely enough, come in really handy!

Not just linters and code tests, but also various checks in regards to the architecture - like how the code is organized, how certain abstractions are used (e.g. if you want to enforce Pinia Setup instead of Option stores, and Vue Composition instead of Options API; or a particular ASP.NET or Spring Boot way of structuring filters and API endpoints and access controls) and so on.

Previously we just expected a bunch of devs to do a lot of heavy lifting along the lines of: "Oh yeah, this doesn't match our ADR described there, please follow the existing structure" which obviously doesn't work when the LLM produces code at 10x the rate.

I think the projects that will truly work well with increased use of agentic LLM use will be those that will have hundreds of various checks and actually ENFORCE standards instead of just expecting them to be followed (which people don't do anyways).
