The Rise of Engineering Agents

When AI gains access to tools through MCP, it evolves into an agent.

An agent can:

Observe
Decide
Act
Validate

Example:

This is no longer code generation.

This is workflow automation.


Mini Exercise

Sketch a simple engineering agent loop for one feature request.

Example

An agent loop might be:

  1. analyze the requirement
  2. call a structure tool
  3. implement the generated files
  4. validate the result
