The reliability of CI/CD pipelines is the primary determinant of agentic success. Flaky tests and unreliable gates prevent agents from scaling, while robust automated verification allows for high-velocity, safe deployment.
Impact: Shifts engineering investment focus from code generation to pipeline integrity, ensuring that speed gains do not result in increased production instability.
