The premise
Most 'works on my machine' bugs are config drift the LLM can spot in seconds if you feed it both sides.
What AI does well here
- Diff dev/staging/prod env files and flag suspicious deltas
- Group differences by category: secrets, feature flags, infra
What AI cannot do
- Tell you which delta was intentional
- Apply the fix without human review
