I mean if we're getting really serious about ai-first development, we might be able to get away with a ton of micro services written with clear, simple apis to communicate all in a giant mono-repo managed by an army of agents. That way the full surface any one agent has to touch is small, compile time of each individual service is very fast, and services can be hand-written if super critical.

Anyway, I've played around with the idea a bit so far, and it seems that current agents/harnesses use way more tokens with that architecture.
