Green tests don't mean the task is done: notes from the Explyt webinar on working with AI agents
Explyt webinar notes: three context anti-patterns, SDD + TDD in six steps, review loops with a hard stop, subagents, git worktrees, a 30-minute setup.

What IDE-native AI feels like
What impressed me most is how well the agent understands the existing project. Its plans fit naturally into what is already built, even when I am working outside my usual tech stack.

LSP gives an agent coordinates; the full IDE gives it the project model. That native IDE context makes all the difference on real Java code.
