The attention-grabbing number is that pstack has let her ship 2,000 pull requests (PRs) a month to production with high confidence. That’s one engineer shipping nearly 100 PRs per working day.</p> <p style="font-size:15px; color:#142640; margin-bottom:8px; line-height:1.5; letter-spacing:0.5px; font-family:'Lato', Tahoma, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight:500">The number is incredible and undeniably an outlier, but the direction is not a surprise. I have argued previously that coding agents would enable teams to generate ten times the code with similar headcounts. What is surprising is that these are not just code output numbers.

Verify, then ship
Lauren Tan, an engineer on the Grok team at SpaceXAI, who previously worked at Cursor and Meta, recently published a guide to her personal agent workflow: pstack. The attention-grabbing number is that pstack has let her ship 2,000 pull requests (PRs) a month to production with high confidence. That’s one engineer shipping nearly 100 PRs per working day.
The number is incredible and undeniably an outlier, but the direction is not a surprise. I have argued previously that coding agents would enable teams to generate ten times the code with similar headcounts. What is surprising is that these are not just code output numbers. These are actual changes landing in production.
Go deeper: One engineer shipped 2,000 PRs a month to production. Verification is the key.

Don't let agent workloads break your stack
Our live session on handling high-scale AI agent workloads is this Thursday, September 24. If you haven’t saved your spot yet, here is a quick recap of what we’ll be covering:
- Why hundreds of reasoning agents create a radically different load than human traffic—and why bigger vector DBs aren’t the answer - How to spot and prevent latency stacking, stale context, and relevance drift before they hit production - Why fragmented stacks (vector DB, ranking, serving) break under pressure, and how unified retrieval solves it

SpaceXAI trained Grok 4.7 on multi-hour tasks to improve agent stamina. The benchmarks reveal where AI coding agents are heading next.
A coding agent running for hours can make dozens of decisions as it edits files, runs tests, and works through errors. One wrong turn can carry through the rest of the task unless the agent catches it. SpaceXAI appears to be training Grok for exactly that problem. The company released Grok...

Warning
Almost all the messages that arrive here are garbage! Resist the urge to click on any unexpected or questionable links.
It may happen that e-mail will claim to come from liamon.com, perhaps from some administrative role or process. There are no users with liamon.com addresses that should be sending anyone e-mail. There are no accounts to expire. There are no passwords to leak. These are certainly garbage messages. These are certainly phishing attempts in some messages.
Absolutely ignore those links!
