A light, hands-on walkthrough: map the Maximo APIs with Max_Interfaces, run the Max_mcp server with a read-only API key, connect any MCP-capable agent (Claude Code, IBM Bob, Cursor, Copilot) and ask it to analyze your work-order backlog — safely.

An AI coding agent walks into your codebase knowing nothing about your naming conventions, banned libraries or deployment rules. Here's how AGENTS.md, rule files, skills and MCP turn house rules into something the agent actually follows.

Approval prompts feel like friction — until a README tricks an AI agent into running malware. What the January 2026 IBM Bob beta incident teaches every enterprise about where humans belong in AI coding.

Cursor, Claude Code, Kiro and IBM Bob all ship some version of Ask, Plan and Agent modes. Here's why the 'think first, type second' habit is the single cheapest guardrail in enterprise vibe coding — and when to skip it.

AI coding went from finishing your line, to answering your questions, to doing the work across your whole system. Here is what changed in each era, why agents need a way into enterprise systems, and how the Model Context Protocol became that way in.

A 13-part, plain-English series on what happens when vibe coding leaves the weekend side project and walks into banks, utilities, insurers, government agencies and manufacturers. Specs, agents, approvals, audit trails, legacy code, firewalls, and how to read the productivity numbers.
