  • Most tools treat code as text. CodeQL treats it as data. 🧠 CodeQL lets you query your code to find logic errors and security issues that standard text search completely misses. It allows you to take one bug and automatically find every other place that same pattern exists—so you can fix them all at once. Ready to try it out yourself? Here's how. ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/gj4GQqkb

  • We often treat coding agents like search engines, but we should be treating them like literal-minded pair programmers. 🤖 They excel at pattern recognition but need unambiguous instructions to work effectively.
