Coding Agent

The Coding Agent is the part of MeetAndy that actually writes code. When you hand off a task to Andy, whether from Slack or the web app, the Coding Agent takes the approved plan, makes the code changes in an isolated environment, and opens a pull or merge request for you to review.

You don't interact with the Coding Agent directly. It's the engine behind the scenes when you click Approve on a plan in Slack or in the web app task.

How it fits in

The flow from a single Slack thread typically looks like:

1. You mention Andy and describe the task → Andy plans
2. You approve the plan → the Coding Agent takes over
3. Andy posts progress as the Coding Agent works
4. The Coding Agent finishes → Andy shows a walkthrough you can preview
5. You approve the preview → Andy opens a pull/merge request
6. You review and merge on GitHub/GitLab → the task is done

You can stop the Coding Agent at any point if something goes off course. See How task execution works.
