Ehsan's Recommendation
The 80/20 of this stack: 80% of the value comes from automated data flow between ai chat and ai code tools. With Ada feeding into GitHub Copilot, you remove the biggest friction point in most design workflow workflows. Assign one owner for this integration. Shared ownership means no ownership.
