## AI overview

Prisma describes how it adopted agentic engineering while building Prisma 8. Engineers remain responsible for architecture, decisions, and quality, while AI agents reduce mechanical work such as typing, boilerplate, and wiring. The approach emphasizes proof-of-concept validation, extensive architecture documentation, and adversarial design sessions before implementation.

## Source excerpt

In three months, Prisma fundamentally changed how it builds software by rethinking the relationship between engineers and AI agents. Here's what we learned building Prisma 8 with agentic engineering.
