More agents means more throughput. Simple math. It made things worse. Manasight is a desktop companion for MTG Arena, the free-to-play digital version of Magic: The Gathering. It's a Tauri app: Rust, TypeScript, Astro. One developer. The project and the game don't matter for this post — the development workflow does. The last post covered testing. This one covers building: how GitHub issues become merged pull requests without me writing the code. The project now has roughly 80,000 lines of code across six repositories. 33,000 lines of production code, 47,000 lines of tests. 616 merged pull requests. Around 6,590 test cases. 51 days.
