Listen "Coding agents need orchestration, not specialization - Louis Knight-Webb, Co-Founder of bloop"
Episode Synopsis
Louis Knight-Webb (Co-founder of Bloop) joins Jay to discuss Vibe Kanban, the orchestration platform for running multiple coding agents in parallel. Louis brings experience from four years building developer tools, starting with enterprise code search, then COBOL modernization, and now agent orchestration as coding agents have become the new primitive. The conversation revolves around how Vibe Kanban solves the bottleneck of running coding agents sequentially by enabling parallel execution with proper sandboxing, task management, and review workflows. Louis explains how they've built 90% of Vibe Kanban using Vibe Kanban itself, creating the tightest feedback loop in tech history. The platform integrates Claude Code, Amp, Gemini CLI, and other agents with Git work trees for lightweight sandboxing, setup/cleanup scripts, and one-click dev servers. Tune into the full episode to learn why the future of coding is about orchestrating AI workers rather than building vertical-specific solutions!HIGHLIGHTS: 0:00 Intro 2:32 Code search to COBOL modernization to agent orchestration 5:01 Vibe Kanban demo - parallel coding agent execution 8:07 Git work trees for lightweight sandboxing vs Docker 10:25 Building Vibe Kanban with Vibe Kanban 12:47 Human as daddy agent delegating to coding agents 14:17 Why review and planning remain human-centric bottlenecks 16:14 Why DocuSign clones work but new ideas don't 18:40 Integrating GitHub, project management, and terminal 21:23 Enterprise vs startup coding workflows and convergence 25:19 Cloud version challenges and technical adjacent users 27:33 Task types that work well with coding agents vs manual work 30:37 The high watermark of current agent capabilities 33:32 YOLO mode vs proper code review for velocity vs quality 35:49 Agent logs and thought process documentation for better reviewConnect with Louis -https://www.linkedin.com/in/knightwebb/ Connect with Jay - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jayhack/ or https://x.com/mathemagic1an Visit https://vibe-kanban.com/ for agent orchestration
