The Age of Coding Agents: How AI is Rewriting the Way We Build Software

We are living through the most profound shift in software development since the invention of version control. AI is no longer your autocomplete — it is your coding agent. It plans, executes, reviews, and ships code autonomously. The question is no longer "should we use AI?" but "how do we build an engineering culture that harnesses agents at scale?"

In this keynote, Marco Antonio Silva — Microsoft Global Black Belt and field engineer who runs agentic development programs with Fortune 500 enterprises — takes you on a live journey through the three pillars of the Coding Agent revolution:

🤖 GHCP Modernization CLI — Watch a legacy codebase get analysed, planned, and refactored by an agent in minutes. Real code. Real enterprise context. The same workflow being used today to modernize hundreds of applications at scale.

🛠️ Squad — Meet the next evolution: multi-agent teams that collaborate the way engineers do. Squad brings structured agentic ceremonies (planning, review, merge gates) to your repository, transforming a single AI into an always-on engineering crew.

🚀 Spec2Cloud — See how a simple specification becomes a cloud-native application. Spec2Cloud closes the loop between intent and implementation, bridging the gap from design to deployed service with agents doing the heavy lifting.

This is not a future vision. Every demo in this keynote runs live. Every pattern shown is in production at enterprise customers today. You will leave with a concrete mental model for how agents change the software lifecycle — and what you need to do next week to get ahead of this shift.

✅ Understand the three layers of the Coding Agent revolution
✅ See real agents modernize, build, and deploy code live on stage
✅ Walk away with an actionable adoption roadmap for your team
