“There are different coding standards being applied in different places by different agents across the codebase. There's duplicated code proliferating. You you already have a library that does this, but your agent doesn't know that.”

From “AI Coding Agents Are Breaking Big Codebases — Dan Adler, Sourcegraph”, found 2026-10-15.
Adler’s point is about enterprises with tens of thousands of repositories, far too much code for an agent to fit in context or grep in real time. Sourcegraph’s answer is a code graph and search layer that agents can query across every repo, plus batch changes that roll a fix out to thousands of repos at once.
