This is true only if your data sources and sinks are accessible, well documented, and their governing app is cooperative, such that your LLM coding tool can get access to it.
For instance, if you want to add a custom filter email plugin, your email app has to provide a plugin API and document it, thereby enabling a LLM-based development tool to seek and find all the necessary hooks for you. But is doing that in the interest of the email app's vendor? If not, no amount of AI will be able to add value to that app, ever.
