499: Going Full Ralph, CLI, & GitHub Copilot SDK?!?!

499: Going Full Ralph, CLI, & GitHub Copilot SDK?!?!

In episode 499 James and Frank dive into the messy, exciting world of coding agents — from burning through Copilot credits and avoiding merge conflicts to practical workflows for letting agents run tasks while you sleep. They share real tips: break big features into bite-sized tasks, have agents ask clarifying questions, and use Copilot CLI or the new SDK to resolve conflicts, auto-fix lint/build failures, and automate mundane repo work.

The conversation then maps the evolution from simple completions to autonomous loops like Ralph — a structured, repeatable process that generates subtasks, runs until acceptance tests pass, and updates your workflow. If you’re curious how agents, MCPs and SDKs can elevate your dev flow or spark new automations, this episode gives pragmatic examples, trade-offs, and inspiration to start experimenting today.
