Think about it. Your AI agent refactors code across 12 files, makes architectural decisions, tries three approaches before settling on one, and fixes a subtle race condition. Then it commits with the message "fix bug" and all that context is gone forever. We'd never accept this from a human developer. Why do we accept it from the tool that's increasingly writing most of our code? AI agents need their own project management I'm not talking about giving Claude a Jira API key. I'm talking about project management that's native to how agents work: plain files, git commits, and context windows.
