Vercel deployed 8 autonomous AI coding agents to optimize Turborepo's task graph computation, achieving 81–91% speedup (up to 96% on large monorepos) by identifying and fixing bottlenecks in Rust code. The eight-day effort combined agent-driven discovery with Vercel Sandboxes and traditional engineering practices, reducing build overhead by 11x.
