Agent Debt Vs Ai Code Debt?
2.0BRAINROT SCOREAGENT DEBT— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE
Agent Debt Predicted framing for the maintenance burden a growing number of standing autonomous agents leaves behind — configurations, permissions, and workflows nobody's fully auditing — as its own category of debt distinct from the code any single agent produces.
EXAMPLE USAGE
"Nobody had a name for it yet, but the pile of half-configured, unmonitored agents was clearly its own kind of debt."
AI CODE DEBT— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE
AI Code Debt Technical debt specifically accrued from AI-generated code that shipped without anyone fully understanding it, distinct from ordinary technical debt because the original "author" can't be asked why it was written that way.
EXAMPLE USAGE
"The refactor sprint exists purely to pay off six months of AI code debt nobody flagged at the time."
