Solomon Hykes, co-founder of Dagger and Docker, shares his insights on the transformative impact of AI agents in software engineering. He discusses the launch of Container Use, designed to create isolated environments for coding agents, preventing interference during execution. Solomon argues that traditional CI/CD practices will become obsolete as agents deliver results 100x faster. He also warns of emerging gatekeeping in the Managed Container Platforms ecosystem and emphasizes the need for transparent communities to foster innovation in DevOps.

INSIGHT

Container Use for Isolated Agents

  • Container Use gives coding agents isolated, containerized environments for running parallel tasks. - This stops agents from interfering with each other on the same system.
INSIGHT

Streamlining Agent Isolation

  • Power users create isolated agent environments using Git work trees and Docker for parallel execution. - Container Use packages this approach into a streamlined tool as an MCP server.
INSIGHT

CI/CD Must Evolve for Agents

  • Agents develop 100x faster than humans and require repeatable, fast CI/CD environments. - Current slow, unreliable CI/CD must evolve or agents cannot function effectively.
