Which coding agents handle database migrations most responsibly?
Reid Callahan
Backend engineers
I am trying to get a realistic read on which coding agents handle database migrations most responsibly.
Compare migration previews, rollback plans, seed safety, and production constraints.
What has actually worked (or failed) for your team? Specific examples, pricing traps, or vendor claims that did not hold up are especially useful.

We compared two vendors on the same 20 tickets. Accuracy was fine; escalation quality was not. Score human handoff and confidence thresholds harder than model branding.

Operations lead
Document what 'done' means for the workflow. We shipped an agent that 'worked' but still required a human to close the loop every time — zero net time saved.

If you are non-technical, demand a sandbox with sample data and a 30-minute setup path. Anything that needs a solutions engineer for the first win will stall on a small team.
