Anyone that have spent serious time with agents know that you cannot expect out-of-the-box success without good context management, despite what the hyping crowd would claim.

Have AI document the services first into a concise document. Then give it proper instructions about what you expect, along with the documentation created.

Opus would pass that.

We are not there yet, the agents are not ready to replace the driver.

Sounds like it'd be faster to just do it yourself.

If you are not going all in with agents, yes, it would. On the other hand, the documentation & workflows need to be created only once. You need to invest a bit upfront to get positive RoI.

Until you have a whole team doing it differently because of no spec.

Yep, I've been doing a lot of Ansible and Terraform automation with agents, and success has been continually updating our learnings, so to speak, capturing them in skills. It really does help in the long run. And it's gotten much smoother. Opus 4.5 was specifically almost like a step change and combined with decent skills, it has been effective in my homelab.
