# Let’s Talk Agentic Development: Spotify x Anthropic Live

**[Spotify Labs](https://daily.dev/sources/spotify)** · 4 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Spotify and Anthropic held a fireside chat at Spotify's London HQ discussing agentic-first software development at enterprise scale. Key topics include Spotify's Slack-native coding agent 'Honk' (powered by Claude) that can perform complex migrations across thousands of repos, the inflection point caused by a Claude model release in late 2025, context engineering strategies for scaling AI agents, and governance challenges around agent-generated code. The conversation also covers Backstage evolving into an agent-first platform with MCP connections, and the future of agents handling the full software lifecycle beyond just code generation.
