In developer experience, we used to talk a lot about the importance of maximizing Flow or deep work time for engineers. This was one of the core productivity metrics we measured. Is Flow even possible for the human in agentic engineering, and does it still matter?

Flow shifts from "uninterrupted coding" to "uninterrupted reviewing." The human's deep work becomes reading diffs, catching architecture drift, and deciding WHAT to build — not HOW. Honestly? It's closer to PM flow than engineering flow. And that's not a demotion.
