Article argues agentic coding creates cognitive debt for developers
The article Agentic Coding is a Trap published at larsfaye.com argues that AI coding agent workflows shift developers into orchestration roles focused on requirements definition, planning, and output review while agents generate code.

Separate posts examine long-term code readability, maintainability concerns, and daily psychological effects including swings between heightened confidence and feelings of falling behind.
