Autonomous AI systems that plan, write, and debug entire software features across complex codebases.

Coding agents like Devin and Cursor’s Composer represent a shift from autocomplete to autonomous engineering. These tools leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to navigate multi-file architectures, execute terminal commands, and resolve GitHub issues without constant human intervention. By integrating directly into the IDE or operating via a headless browser, they handle the heavy lifting of boilerplate and refactoring. Teams at companies like Cognition and Replit are already using these agents to reduce development cycles by 40% (or more) for routine tasks.

### [Turn your Homelab into a Dark Factory](https://cologne.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_iWZxTrC9hQ8)

I turned my Homelab into a dark factory where I run an orchestrating agent that schedules and delegates work to other agents. There are two parts to this system: the control plane, which handles where agents run and how they run, and the data plane, which handles the actual work you commit (or not). We're going to see how I interact with a personal agent (Hermes, if I have time, I'll show my own agent) and how Hermes decides what to do next depending on our conversation. Instead of making Hermes write the code, it will delegate the tasks to different coding agents running in our own sandbox (built with Firecracker on top of a Proxmox VM). I'll walk you through the different components, how it works and why it matters (in particular the sandbox part).
