Using Claude to build things quickly is great - but once you hit a certain level of scale, or have a need for governed workflows & oversight, you're more or less going to want some sort of CMS. When that happens, you can either go it alone, or build on top of a lot of well discussed well thought through solutions to these sorts of problems that the Drupal community has dealt with for a couple of decades.

That isn't needed anymore. One person can maintain an entirely in-house solution and easily make changes and adaptations.
Not nearly enough time has passed to make any conclusions about long-term maintainability of LLM-written code.
Have you tried letting AI agents make design decisions on their own? (technical or otherwise), in my experience you still need to properly understand what you want to get good results - you would need to have a deep understanding of all the potential warts, security holes, usability issues etc - developing a CMS via AI is still a substantial project.
