This AI Agent Made My Code Better the Longer It Ran

Factory AI just shipped Missions. Droids that pursue goals autonomously over multi-day horizons. The orchestrator breaks projects into milestones, spawns fresh worker sessions so no single agent drowns in context, and validates at every checkpoint. The median mission runs about 2 hours. 14% run longer than a full day. I got early access with research credits to test this. In this stream, I'm reading through the release, demoing the software live, trying to update an existing app and build one from scratch, and answering questions from y'all as we go. We're figuring out together if this actually changes how autonomous coding agents work. What makes this interesting: fresh worker sessions with clean context for each feature (solving the "gets dumber over time" problem), multi-model orchestration putting different models in different roles, and a skill system that learns patterns from your specific codebase.
