AI Overview
- Charlie Holtz, co-founder and CEO of Conductor, shares principles from top builders: stay near the frontier, create "slop-free zones," feed agents one queryable database.
- Holtz demos a new Conductor version adding real-time collaboration, cloud sandboxes, and starting agents from a phone.
- He rejects "software factory" framing: humans conduct teams of people and agents rather than manage assembly lines.

Factory's Tereza Tížková: How to Build a Software Factory That Runs the Full Lifecycle Autonomously
In a talk, Factory's Tereza Tížková defines a software factory as the entire software lifecycle run autonomously — collecting signals, prioritizing, building, validating, and improving — not just a swarm of coding agents. She shares three principles (stay agnostic, stay autonomous, keep improving) drawn from Factory's deployments for enterprises like EY, Adobe, and Coinbase.

Software Engineering Is Becoming Factory Engineering — Zach Lloyd, Warp
Warp CEO Zach Lloyd, who led engineering on Google Docs, says every serious software project will run a 'software factory' the way projects now run CI/CD. He reports he hasn't written a line of code in six months while still shipping, and lays out Warp's factory pipeline. Warp open-sourced after five years closed, citing ecosystem-building over product advantage.

HolaOS: open-source agentic workspace connecting enterprise systems with shared memory
HolaOS is an open-source agentic workspace for enterprises that connects existing systems (integrations, MCP, chat tools, apps, browser, local files) with shared memory. It works with any agent such as Claude Code or Codex, any model, or BYOK, and is local-first so data stays on the user's machines. It targets enterprises that want to assemble an agent workspace themselves instead of waiting on long setups.

Concord: MCP/CLI for coding agents to coordinate and message
Concord is an MCP and CLI tool that lets coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor communicate and coordinate. It allows agents to claim work, see what others are doing, and message each other live, preventing duplicated or conflicting changes. It solves the problem of parallel agents lacking task context, similar to giving a team a shared communication channel.
