autonomous-dev

To set up an autonomous coding agent, run /autodev setup with your project path to initialize the configuration. This coordinates scanners and an executor to automatically detect, triage, and implement fixes across your codebase.

A scanner-executor architecture automates development workflows by using scanners to detect codebase issues, triaging to prioritize them, and an executor to implement the fixes. This loop reduces manual toil and accelerates project iteration.

Yes, autonomous development workflows support continuous monitoring. By configuring your project for ongoing automation, scanners continuously detect actionable items, triage priorities, and the executor applies enhancements in a controlled loop.

In an automated development workflow, triaging works by prioritizing the actionable items detected by scanners. Once prioritized, the executor implements the necessary fixes or enhancements, ensuring safety through configured checks.

No specific external dependencies are required to run autonomous coding agents. The system operates using modular components including internal scripts, references, and status monitoring to execute automated changes safely.

While autonomous agents reduce manual toil, their limitations include relying on configured safety checks to prevent erroneous changes. Users must carefully configure scanners and triage rules to ensure the executor applies appropriate fixes.
