You Didn't Ship a Bug. You Just Wrote It for a Human. - Ravi Madabhushi, Scalekit
Human-focused API architecture fails at agent scale, requiring ground-up rethinking of auth systems.
“the human-focused architecture doesn't scale well for agents”
Scalekit co-founder Ravi Madabhushi describes discovering that AI agents hit their identity/auth APIs 60x faster than human users, exposing hidden assumptions baked into human-centric system design. The talk argues developers must rethink APIs and MCP servers architecturally from scratch for agentic workloads rather than retrofitting human-oriented systems. This is a practical engineering signal for the growing pain point of agent-native infrastructure.
