This model worked when traffic was predictable and growth was linear.

The Need for Clean in the AI Era

In the AI era, software and new models are being born at a breakneck pace—but they’re also bringing a lot of “baggage” into the world. While AI coding agents are busy accelerating innovation, they’re also excellent at generating a massive byproduct: “digital dust.” Between obsolete releases, orphaned dependencies, and massive model versions, your repository may soon start to look more like a digital junk drawer than a streamlined machine.
