Create dueling AI agents, Bob the Builder and Ray the Reviewer, to generate and critique code for security and architecture issues using a two-agent system with checks and balances.

Full Transcript

I say to Bob, you have to stop constantly and you have to run everything by Ray who's the review agent. [laughter] >> So you have actually named your clouds and then you give them instructions to listen to each other. So how does Bob invoke Ray? >> So let's do this. We were going to build the retention plan. So I use the app. It finds its retention plan and then I just say because Bob knows what his role is, I say get started. So it's starting to read this markdown file of what this retention plan is. I came up with this weeks ago. Reviewed it. I thought it was pretty good. And now we got to start building it. So once it's done here, it will spit out something that I have to then copy and paste into Ray. Now what I've done in the past is I haven't built Ray. I've just said run this past the security agent. That works, but what I don't like about it is I can't see what the security agent is saying. So what the builder agent will often just say is security passed it or security wants me to change one thing. But because I'm trying to learn this also, I want to know what it's stumbling
