Overview

Section 13 · Team & Process — Issues, boards, reviewing AI-written code, token economics, ownership.

6 lessons.

By the end of this section you can

  • Run issue-driven development with acceptance criteria an agent can implement against.
  • Review AI-written code for the failure modes it actually has.
  • Budget tokens and set spend limits before the bill arrives.
  • Assign ownership of the paths that matter — including CI configuration itself.

Issue-Driven Development

beginner · ~15 min — An issue is the cheapest review you will ever do. It happens before a branch exists, it takes ten minutes, and it catches the expensive class of mistake: building the wrong thing well.

Project Boards And Sprints

beginner · ~15 min — A board answers one question at a glance: what is actually moving, and what is stuck.

Code Review For AI Code

intermediate · ~20 min — An agent can produce in twenty minutes a diff that would take you a day to write and two hours to review. That is not a bargain if you skim it.

Token Economics And Budgets

intermediate · ~18 min — Token discipline keeps one agent session cheap. Budgets keep a product alive — the difference between a feature whose cost you understand and one that quietly becomes your largest line item.

Team Ownership And CODEOWNERS

intermediate · ~12 min — Ownership answers two questions that otherwise get resolved after an incident: who reviews this? and who is accountable if it breaks?

Process Exercises

beginner · ~20 min — You have read about issues, boards, review, ownership and cost. Reading is not practice.
