Your AI Coding Agent Isn’t a Team Member. It’s Five of Them.

Most teams using Claude Code are doing it wrong. They treat the AI like a single, brilliant intern - toss it a task, review the output, fix the mess, repeat. It works, sort of. But it’s like hiring a concert pianist and asking them to only play chopsticks. The real power isn’t in having one agent do everything. It’s in making the agent switch roles at precisely the right moment in your development lifecycle.
