Agentic Software Engineering (SE 3.0): The Rise of AI Teammates

Aug 2026 · Proceedings of the 32nd ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining V.2 · pp. 13417-13418 · 0 citations

Abstract

We are witnessing the emergence of Agentic Software Engineering (SE~3.0), where AI agents act as autonomous AI Teammates performing complex tasks such as coding, debugging, and testing. As AI Teammates generate a vast new category of digital artifacts, they introduce unique opportunities and challenges related to human-AI collaboration, trustworthiness, and economic impact. This workshop serves as the premier forum for addressing these challenges, anchored by the launch of the AIDev dataset. Comprising over one million agentic pull requests generated by AI Teammates such as Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and GitHub Copilot, AIDev provides the empirical evidence needed to understand the behaviors of AI Teammates. This workshop features insights from major industry players and academic pioneers, and aims to define a roadmap for a world where AI Teammates and human developers build the future together.

Authoring Agent Skills: A Software-Engineering Approach

This note argues that a skill is a software artefact and that its construction should follow software-engineering principles, with qualifications: single responsibility, separation of interface from implementation, low coupling, and economy in a shared token budget, together with behavioural evaluation in place of dete...
