How to Build AI Agents That Check Their Own Work | Jared Zoneraich

Jared is a Builder in Residence at Cognition, the team behind
Devin. He showed me why teams often overbuild their first agents,
and how simple prompts, better tools, and self-testing work
together instead. Then he demoed one manager agent breaking down
a task, directing 10 cloud agents, and deciding what a human
needs to review.

Jared and I talked about:

(00:00) Why teams overbuild their first AI agent

(02:50) Let the model cook before adding rules

(03:16) Why tools matter more than better prompts

(10:51) Why you should build evals after shipping

(16:06) What cloud agents can do that local agents can’t

(20:30) How to get one agent to manage other agents

(25:39) Demo: One agent launches a team of 10

(28:03) How agents prove their work before you review it

(33:18) The best tasks for agent teams to work on
