Here's what I've been watching: startups do the market research, build the product, create the category and Claude Code ships the exact same feature once the market adapts
So here's what I think the next 6–12 months look like:
1. Self-Evolving Agents: Skills exist today as a framework. Agents will begin updating their own skills, rewriting their own playbooks after every task. The system learns to improve itself. Lots of startups already working to solve this problem
2. Local → Remote → Global Sessions: They shipped local where an engineer works on few repositories within Claude Code. Then recently remote to push local sessions to remote. The trajectory seems obvious. Soon, the entire organisational codebase becomes a few global sessions tended by few architects within the organisation
3. Moving into the Production Layer Claude Code moves from the editor into the infrastructure itself watching, identifying bugs, shipping fixes.
4. [2026] The Great Reallocation This is the hardest one to say. Companies won't just hire fewer engineers. They'll restructure around the assumption that the system runs itself with fewer engineers.
I would love to be proved wrong!!
