An increasing share of software engineering is moving toward autonomy. Recently, I set out to explore the current frontier of coding agents, including IBM Bob, Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini, to se...

The agentic software development tool IBM Bob has recently introduced support for hooks. Hooks enable developers to integrate deterministic code and validation gates into workflows, significantly i...

Agentic software development tools like IBM Bob require customization via skills and tools to interface with external platforms like IBM watsonx Orchestrate. This post introduces a new community-bu...

When deploying agents to enterprise AI platforms like IBM watsonx Orchestrate, robust user authentication and authorization are foundational requirements. Agents must operate securely on behalf of ...

When deploying agents to AI enterprise platforms like IBM watsonx Orchestrate, user authentication is a primary requirement. Agents must be capable of operating on behalf of users to securely acces...

In agentic software development frameworks like IBM Bob, skills provide essential functionality to instruct agents on how to handle domain-specific tasks. With its latest release, watsonx Orchestra...

One of the key challenges in agentic software development is keeping AI-driven tasks reliable, predictable, and efficient. The latest version of IBM Bob addresses these pain points by introducing w...

When using AI-powered software development tools, finding the right balance between agent autonomy and developer control is a constant trade-off. The agentic development tool IBM Bob is primarily b...

Agentic software development tools like IBM Bob can do much more than just generate code. Their real power emerges when they directly access live environments to run, test, and monitor code. This p...
