I've been watching Dagger with great interest, although have not moved production workloads to it (nor, admittedly, even committed an afternoon to setting up any workflows/graphs).

Passive comment readers should be aware that ^shykes here cofounded Docker (my gratitude), so it's really worth a look.

Can anyone comment on the ergonomics of Dagger after using it for a while?

I was just looking at the docs earlier this week to consider a migration but got confused by the AI sections...

You're not the only one... At some point last year, we discovered that CI/CD workflows and so-called "AI agent workflows" have a lot in common, and Dagger can in theory be used as an execution engine for both. We attempted to explain this - "great for CI/CD and for Agents!". But the feedback was mostly negative - it came across as confusing and lacking focus. So, we are rolling back this messaging and refocusing on CI/CD again. If you haven't checked our docs in the latest 12 hours, it's worth checking again: you'll see clear signs of this refocusing (although we are not done).

In doubt, I recommend joining our public discord server (https://discord.com/invite/dagger-io) it is basically a support group for CI/CD nerds who believe that a better way is possible, and want to discuss it with like-minded people.

Thanks for the kind words!
