Rework rarely announces itself. It shows up disguised as productivity — a revert here, a "fix:" follow-up there, a branch quietly closed and re-cut on a new base. Each looks like a small course correction. In aggregate, they are the single largest tax on a delivery stream, and in an agentic one — where an AI author ships fast and there is no default human reviewer standing between the model and the merge button — they compound faster than anyone expects.

Something quietly inverted in Salesforce delivery over the last year, and most teams haven't repriced their work to match. An agent can now author a permission set, refactor an Apex batch class, write the test coverage, generate a data-migration script, and open a clean merge request — in minutes, without complaint, at a level of craft that would have been a mid-level developer's afternoon. The bottleneck everyone spent a decade optimizing — can we build it fast enough? — has largely dissolved.
