As engineering teams adopt coding agents, the next challenge is understanding not just what agents produce, but how the codebase feels to work inside.

I audibly LOLed mid-standup call, and now my entire team is playing with this and it looks like this is eating up what little productivity we have on Friday.
Thanks Endless Toil!

This sounds a lot like the object of the seminal science fiction work "Don't Build The Torment Nexus".
"Don't build the Torment Nexus" is apocryphal, but Lena/MMacevedo is a real fictional story:
I shudder to think that someone's going to try to emulate that.

Just add some audible vocal groans and moans that trigger whenever an agent is “thinking.”.
Re: Hear your agent suffer through your code
#78Please stop ascribing emotion to code that passably resembles speech.

Should be showering sounds. Or walking in circles. And of course head scratching.
As the las resort it should be fridge opening and 'meh' of resignation.
