> Why does EVERYTHING has to be geared towards agents?

This was also my first thought when I checked the website. I was interested in the general merge approach, and that it works with LLMs and agents fine, but that's secondary. Nowadays every product must be in-your-face AI-first somehow, often to the extent that it de-emphasizes why the product exists in the first place, its core competency and distinguishing features pushed below the fold by screaming "It supports AI" headlines. It saddens me. That something supports AI is nothing special anymore, an expected feature. Just mention it like that, in the product highlight box next to where it mentions that it supports Github or similar nothing-special features.

Automated process run into race conditions more often due to their frequency. Humans can do that too, but are less likely to in practice both due to lower frequency and because they carry more awareness of global context that isn't captured in systems that aren't checking for it. The ability of your brain to read and take as context all the pull requests open in a repo that might affect your work.

Totally fair. The merge logic doesn't care whether a human or an agent wrote the commit, "two commits touch different functions in the same file, clean merge" is exactly how a human should read it too. We lead with agents because that's where merge volume is about to explode and the pain is worst, not because it's agent-only. Point taken on the copy, I'll make it less exclusionary.

Moving forward one can expect the most amount of code to be generated by agents, so it makes sense to optimise for that use case.

(Note that i’m not saying it’s good or bad)
