Great article! The real impact of Agentic SDLC will be seen when AI goes beyond just generating code and starts supporting intelligent decision-making across the entire software development lifecycle. At IT Path Solutions, we also provide Agentic AI development services, and we're seeing how this approach helps teams improve productivity, accelerate delivery, and maintain high-quality software. Exciting to see where this evolution is headed!

Spot on, Evelyn, code generation was never the bottleneck. The real shift is AI owning judgment calls across the SDLC: what to test, when to ship, what risk to accept. Curious how you're tackling that decision layer at IT Path Solutions that's where most agentic AI claims get tested.
