AI coding agent adoption causes no change in human contributor count but reduces contributor density and newcomer share by 3.7pp while increasing review depth by 5.3% in a staggered DiD analysis of 11k GitHub projects.
Observational study of 20,574 sessions identifies seven misalignment forms where 90.5% cause effort/trust costs and 91.5% require explicit user correction, varying by interface and over time.
Large-scale trajectory analysis of 19 coding agents on 500 tasks finds that LLM choice drives outcomes more than framework design and that context-gathering plus validation behaviors improve success beyond task difficulty predictions.
Review is the control point for AI-authored code: teams set the sign of AI’s effect through reviewer expertise and process design, not the technology itself.
Hot fixes show urgency patterns with reduced collaboration and testing, differing from regular fixes, and human versus AI agents display over 10 distinct repair behaviors in large-scale GitHub data.
PAFT improves LLM-based program repair pass rates by up to 65.6% while cutting average edit distance by up to 32.6% through explicit preservation signals and curriculum training.
ProjectMem implements a local event-sourced memory and judgment layer for AI coding agents that logs typed events, projects them to MCP summaries, and applies deterministic pre-action gates to avoid known failures.
Proposes a five-stage agentic AI framework for code review with human quality gates to maintain context, accountability, and team understanding.
