Infrastructure-as-Code Was Built for Humans. AI Agents Need Infrastructure-as-Tools. Last week I watched a Claude agent write a complete Next.js app with a Postgres-backed API, authentication, and tests. Took about 8 minutes. Then it said "here's your code" and I spent the next hour manually provisioning the database, configuring the deployment, setting environment variables, and debugging TLS. The agent did the creative, hard work. I did the mechanical, boring work. Something is backwards here. This isn't about agents getting smarter. It's about infrastructure not speaking their language yet. The gap nobody's solving Look at the last mile of every AI coding session: Agent writes the code (automated) You provision a database (manual) You set up hosting (manual) You configure a domain + TLS (manual) You wire environment variables (manual) You deploy and debug (manual) Steps 2-6 aren't creative work. They're mechanical, repetitive, and well-defined — exactly the kind of tasks agents are
