What It Actually Takes to Build a Software Factory — Tereza Tížková, Factory

Tereza Tížková of Factory explains what a software factory really is: an autonomous, end-to-end software lifecycle that goes far beyond coding agents. She covers three guiding principles of agnosticism, autonomy, and continuous improvement, including automatic model routing, long-running multi-agent missions with sequential workers and independent validators, a deferred context engine, and agent readiness checks, and closes with a view on what remains for humans.
