GitHub COO Kyle Daigle joins swyx to unpack the agent era at GitHub, from Copilot's evolution beyond code completion to how he personally runs 15 agents on Saturdays for executive work. He explains why GitHub's infrastructure is breaking under 14x commit growth, the shift from mega-skills to atomic micro-skills, and how agents like WorkIQ and MCP servers provide company context for non-technical leaders. Daigle also addresses scaling challenges, the npm acquisition, and why Microsoft is investing in open-source agent platforms like OpenClaw.
