Pulumi published the blog post 'How Building AI Agents Has Changed in 2026' on May 14, 2026. The post details how SDKs from Claude and OpenAI now include built-in tools like Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob, WebSearch, and WebFetch, reducing agent setup to about ten lines of code. Skills patterns replace tool stuffing with markdown packages of around 100 tokens loaded on demand, and RAG usage has declined in favor of direct file access or grep in agents like Cursor and Claude Code. Pulumi Neo applies the same SDK-first model to infrastructure-as-code by enabling agents to reason directly over state graphs with existing governance controls.
