I think so. If nothing else, when you deploy and see a bug, you can have a script that revives the LLMs of the last N commits and ask "would your change have caused this?" Probably wouldn't work or be any more efficient than a new debugging agent most of the time, but it might sometimes and you'd have a fix PR ready before you even answered the pager, and a postmortem that includes WHY it did so, and a prompt to prevent that behavior in the future. And it's cheap, so why not.

Maybe not a permanent part of the commit, but something stored on the side for a few weeks at a time. Or even permanently, it could be useful to go back and ask, "why did you do it that way?", and realize that the reason is no longer relevant and you can simplify the design without worrying you're breaking something.
