There's a quiet tax being levied on every team adopting AI coding agents. It doesn't show up in your sprint retro. It shows up in your API bill. Every time an agent reads a file to answer a question, it burns tokens. This is a structural problem with a structural solution: a knowledge graph that gives AI agents the same mental model a senior engineer uses to navigate a codebase.

In the ever-evolving world of web development, caching remains a powerful tool for optimizing application performance. However, managing caching across multiple layers in an application, like the frontend, backend, and database, can introduce complexities, particularly around data consistency. Next.js 15 has made notable updates in caching strategies, shifting from "cached by default" to "uncached by default" for GET route handlers and Client Router Cache. Let's take a closer look at how these changes fit into broader caching considerations and explore a few practical examples that highlight the impact of caching decisions on performance and user experience.
