Why AI Coding Agents Lose Context After the PR, and How to Keep It

AI coding agents can write and test code but lose the delivery evidence produced after a pull request—failed builds, security findings, latency regressions—unless it is carried back into the workflow. The post describes Harness's Code Context Engine (from its Augment Code acquisition) for code context and its Software Delivery Knowledge Graph for delivery context, citing Augment's benchmark of 80%, 71%, and 30% improvements and Harness's internal estimate of about 12K tokens per graph query versus 250K+ via raw APIs. It presents a CVE workflow combining both, notes the two-way link between them is planned rather than shipped, and covers governance via policy as code, RBAC, and approval gates.
