This is going to gain me some unfollows, or at the very least some side-eye/eye-roll looks.
The more I use #LLM tools in my day to day, the more I like them. Not to #VibeCode, but to use them as an actual #assistant.
I already wrote a couple of #automations for my team to improve our workflows and improve #consistency and #quality. One we are all actively using to interact with Jira, by following our team standards when writing epics, stories, spikes etc., as I said, it helps keep the content consistent and aligned.
I am also working on an automation for me that could eventually become another team-wide one that gives me a high-level status of all my pull requests, pending #CodeReviews, issue status, etc. and gives me a brief paragraph with how my day is going and recommends what should be my focus (based on the given priorities).
Do I need LLMs for this? No, but as a good engineer, the less I have to worry about some things, the more bandwidth I have to worry about other important things.
Could I do something like this with standard scripting? Most of it yes, but there is a very nice result of using LLMs that would be extremely hard or time consuming with standard tools; they are especially good at adapting to small edge cases and unforeseen or unimplemented features.
I also have to say I am not a stranger to vibe coding. I've done it, and I really like it for those little personal scripts and one-offs that used to take so long with so little gains.
Anyway, if you want to unfollow, block or just eye-roll me, I won't hold it against you.
