I work in a large corpo eco system of products across languages that talk to a mess of micro and not so micro services.
Ai tools are rarely useful out of the box in this context. Mostly because they can't fit the ecosystem into their context. I think i would need 10 agents or more for the task.
We have good documentation, but just fitting the documentation into context alongside a microservice is a tight fit. Most services would need one agent for the code (and even then it'd only fit 10% in context), and one for the docs.
Trying to use them without sufficient context, or trying to cram the right 10% into context, takes more effort than just coding the feature, and produces worse results with the worst kind of bugs, subtle ones borne from incorrect assumptions.
