Steve Yegge's 'Agent Fleets' Era: Gas Town Orchestrates 20-30 Parallel Agents, Beads Gives Them Memory
Yegge's current work reframes agentic coding as fleet management — Gas Town is a multi-agent orchestrator for running 20-30 parallel agents, and Beads is a memory/issue-tracking system built specifically for AI agents rather than humans. His six-wave chart lands 2026 squarely in 'agent fleets,' arguing the skill of the year is coordinating agents, not prompting one. Highly resonant for anyone already running an agent harness with a ticket/issue backend: the pattern of an agent-native issue tracker plus a fleet orchestrator is converging into a recognized architecture.
