What's new in DevEx - March 26

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince said AI agents could generate more internet traffic than humans within the next two years. A single user request can trigger thousands of automated page visits as agents gather information or complete tasks. The shift could reshape how infrastructure, APIs, and rate limits are designed.

Stripe revealed that its internal coding agents called Minions now generate more than 1,300 pull requests each week with zero human-written code. Engineers trigger tasks through Slack, CLI, or automated systems, and the agent handles the workflow before opening a PR for review. The system runs inside disposable development environments with access to hundreds of internal tools.

Claude Code Channels let developers control a running coding session from Telegram or Discord. Messages sent from a phone are injected into the active local session, allowing Claude to execute tasks and report progress back through chat. It takes the ideas OpenClaw popularized and makes it actually usable for large organizations.

Linear introduced a built-in AI agent that can create issues, generate specs, and triage feedback across the app and Slack. CEO Karri Saarinen argues traditional issue tracking no longer fits AI-assisted teams, and this release reflects a shift toward agent-driven workflows where context and execution move seamlessly between humans and AI.

LangSmith Fleet allows teams to package workflows and domain knowledge into reusable skills that agents can load when relevant. Skills can be created with AI assistance, from templates, or written manually, then shared across a workspace or pulled into local development tools.

Solo.io launched agentevals, an open-source framework for evaluating how reliably agents perform in production. It analyzes agent behavior using OpenTelemetry traces from recorded runs or live systems, helping teams detect regressions as models, prompts, or tools change.

Toronto Tech Week returns this May (May 25-29) with a citywide series of founder meetups, demos, panels, and hackathons hosted across the city. Rather than a single conference, it’s a decentralized week of community-run events where startups, investors, and builders open their doors and share what they’re working on. Events will be hosted by companies like Shopify, PostHog, Rootly, Robinhood, Carta and many others across the local tech ecosystem. If you’re looking to explore Toronto’s tech ecosystem, May is the best time to visit!
