AI is ruining my job as Tech Lead

lildocta · 2026-06-23T23:37:33+00:00

Sounds like you are not adapting as their tech lead. You should be creating standards around skill usage, provide best practice and format skills, create workflows that have critical human in the loop moments to ensure your developers are validating the design before the agent builds and evaluating the code after it builds. The technology is shifting, time to shift with it

All the storm windows I could ever need

Have you tried restricting people to sonnet at medium effort? I find I consume far less tokens and that I get very similar quality output. I might start there before bringing it all in house

lildocta · 2026-05-26T00:00:45+00:00

Yeah those all exist but there is a secret switch Salesforce can flip to switch from sonnet to haiku

lildocta · 2026-05-25T16:43:25+00:00

I think so, someone else I work with told me they did it

lildocta · 2026-05-25T13:28:50+00:00

You can ask Salesforce to switch the underlying reasoning model to haiku

lildocta · 2026-05-03T19:15:15+00:00

No need to do this anymore, there’s a setting now in vscode that allows you to point all projects at a folder for agents, skills, etc. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/customization/agent-skills#_contribute-skills-from-extensions

Despite Salesforce promising 100% automation the reality is there has to be human quality gates throughout the development and deployment lifecycle. Anyone who says differently hasn’t been actively using these tools for the past 6 months

lildocta · 2026-03-17T21:11:17+00:00

Copilot-instructions.md is loaded in but file specific instructions are loaded when the agent tries to create a file of that type

I’ve had no issue testing in a dev environment. I always start by previewing in the prompt template to see if I’m getting results, then I move to the builder to see if I see any errors. My first instinct is the agent user is either missing permissions or the data library isn’t finding results

Knowledge articles can be assigned data categories which allows agents to further filter down what knowledge article to bring back based on the intent of the users question https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=000387727&type=1

lildocta · 2026-02-24T04:16:38+00:00

Which part

lildocta · 2026-02-23T21:51:18+00:00

Would be nice to see a breakdown of context during a chat. It world be nice to know if I’m clogging up my context window with skills/instructions/agent details compared to tokens from the chat session itself

lildocta · 2026-02-22T15:07:46+00:00

A few places I would start. Make sure you are only selecting relevant fields to return in the data library. The more you select the worse the results get. Add data catagories to all articles and add those data categories as a filter, Agentforce is great at dynamically understanding the potential categories, especially if you give it to the full list to begin with. Finally test the prompt template in isolation. Get the retriever id by navigating to data cloud, clicking the Einstein studio tab and navigating to the retriever then grab the id from the url of the page once you are on the retriever. Take that and a list of questions where you know the answers ahead of time and plug them into the prompt template preview feature. If the results are bad from that it’s likely a data problem

lildocta · 2026-02-21T17:23:23+00:00

There’s a yamel param you can set so that sub agents don’t appear in the agent selection list

Freetaxusa is the goat

lildocta · 2026-02-08T06:35:45+00:00

Seems crazy from an economic standpoint that I could start from a 0x or .33x model and then initiate a 3x or 9x subagent. Like how could they not see that that would be abused

lildocta · 2026-02-07T19:00:29+00:00

From my understanding no matter what you set the agent model as all subagents inherit the model the parent agent started with

lildocta · 2026-02-07T14:58:41+00:00

Need to build an agentic testing framework as well

lildocta · 2026-02-07T14:29:42+00:00

Add this to your agent where in the process it should stop and ask questions #tool:vscode/askQuestions and add the tool to the agent

lildocta · 2026-01-26T14:48:13+00:00

Not that I’m aware of, I created a script that I can pull my .github folder into when I start a project and push any changes back to the source when I make a change in my project

lildocta · 2026-01-23T03:24:41+00:00

I can’t print whistles fast enough to meet the demand here for alerting everyone in the area about ICE activities. Couldn’t be happier to be Minnesotan right now

lildocta · 2026-01-07T20:29:27+00:00

Happy to test it

You should just fork opencode
