  "summary": "LLM coding agents can increasingly automate model post-training, but whether they can act as forward-deployed engineer (FDE) agents, discovering customer requirements and turning them into deployment decisions, remains unclear. We study this on a real enterprise text-to-SQL engagement: a simulated customer, grounded in the real use case's requirements, starts with an ambiguous request. An agent…",
