Your AI Agent Is Slowing Down Your Compiler
A intermediate to expert talk by Martin Ferret, TypeScript performance expert, available to book online or on site, in English or French. Format: 30 to 45 min.
Abstract
Typed AI agents are everywhere: tools described with schemas, structured outputs inferred into TypeScript types, SDKs built on deeply generic APIs. Great for safety, but they can quietly crush your type-checker. I'm measuring what schemas, tool definitions and AI SDK types cost the TypeScript compiler as an agent grows from 1 to 50 tools, and which ways of writing them stay fast. You'll see the numbers, why some patterns explode, and how to keep agents fully typed and fast to build.
