Stop being the code review bottleneck
AI agents are writing code faster than humans can review, creating a bottleneck in software development workflows. This article proposes four strategies used by PostHog to leverage AI for offloading code review and adjacent tasks, allowing human developers to review less code and focus on complex issues. These methods include making agents review each other's work, delegating PR babysitting, implementing an auto-stamper for low-risk PRs, and verifying agent-generated code through observation rather than reasoning. By adopting these approaches, teams can maintain quality, accelerate shipping, and reduce developer fatigue.
