alt Hacker NewsThis is my recent experience as well. Models want to run linters, tests, etc. And that is all covered in GitHub actions. So I have been instructing agents to push a draft PR, then I validate the static checks pass and tell the agent if there are issues.
Agents and AI are getting expensive, it seems silly to waste tokens on static checks.

Downside would seem to be that CI tends to increase the cycle time and feedback loop and add their own cost into the equation.
It seems running those tests, linters, etc locally would save pipeline minutes as well, like precommit hooks
