An AI agent, while capable of writing functional code, can introduce significant code quality debt if it lacks context of the existing codebase. This was observed when an AI agent created a new reporting service instead of extending an existing one, leading to duplicated effort and future maintenance challenges. To address this, a new tool called Bodhiorchard was developed, which provides AI agents with a comprehensive Business Understanding Document (BUD) that includes the codebase context, aiming to imbue agents with the judgment of a senior developer.
