Presentation: Rewriting All of Spotify's Code Base, All the Time

Jo Kelly-Fenton, Aleksandar Mitic — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 11:00:00 GMT

Jo Kelly-Fenton and Aleksandar Mitic explain how Spotify created "Honk," an AI coding agent, to handle complex fleet-wide codebase migrations. They share key architectural insights on decoupling CI verification runtimes from AI agents, dealing with automated pull request bottlenecks, and driving aggressive standardization across thousands of engineering repositories.
