The irony is that coding agents are, if anything, more affected by technical debt than human maintainers (who at least occasionally have the taste to rise above the level of the current codebase they're working in). The impact on productivity may be initially delayed, but it's going to compound faster.

Not unless agent increases in capability faster than it compiles debt in the codebase!

There has to be some kind of theorem in here, since agent actions (including debt generating ones), are training data for future agents.
