The Staffing Cliff Is Real: What IBM i Organizations Should Be Planning Right Now
Every IBM i organization knows the headcount is shrinking. The average RPG developer is in their mid-to-late fifties. Retirements are accelerating. Hiring to backfill is difficult in the best of circumstances, and the pipeline of developers entering the field with IBM i expertise slow growing. Most technology leaders are aware of this. What many haven’t fully reckoned with is what leaves when a veteran IBM i developer […]
Profound Logic Adds IBM Bob to CoderFlow’s Agentic Coding Platform, Enabling Autonomous IBM i Execution Beyond What Bob Can Do Alone
CoderFlow gives IBM Bob deep IBM i integration, autonomous build-test-fix loops, and parallel orchestration. Profound Logic, the leader in IBM i futurization, today announced that CoderFlow now supports IBM Bob as a participating agent in its autonomous execution platform. CoderFlow is an enterprise agentic coding platform that gives organizations the governance, security, and infrastructure control required to deploy AI-driven development at scale. It runs autonomous agents that […]
The Skills System: How CoderFlow Learns Your Environment
One of the most common reasons AI coding tools underdeliver in IBM i environments has nothing to do with the AI itself. It’s that the agent doesn’t know how anything in your environment actually works. CoderFlow’s Skills system solves that problem at the architecture level.
What “Verified, Ready-to-Commit” Really Means
AI coding assistants promise faster development, but they stop at generating code, leaving compilation, testing, debugging, and validation to developers. Discover what “verified, ready-to-commit” really means as an outcome standard, and why enterprise teams, especially those running IBM i, should be measuring AI tools against it.
Why Modernization Isn’t Enough & What Futurization Actually Means for IBM i
Most IBM i organizations have tried modernization and found it falls short. Surface-level upgrades don’t resolve technical debt, close the talent gap, or prepare your platform for AI. Discover why futurization is a fundamentally different approach and what it takes to turn IBM i into a strategic growth engine.
Why Your DevOps Toolchain Is the Real Barrier to Agentic Coding on IBM i
Every IBM i organization exploring agentic coding is asking the wrong first question. Before selecting an AI model or platform, you need to assess whether your software delivery toolchain can support autonomous agents. Discover the three non-negotiable DevOps prerequisites and why CoderFlow is built to meet IBM i environments where they actually are.
