Why it matters
Money tasks are tedious but high-stakes, which is exactly where a careful agent helps: it does the checking and paperwork while a person keeps the final say. It is one of 156 sightings filed under Finance on Agent Sightings (number 67 by interest), and one of 1 involving GitLab Duo.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into GitLab Duo or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
I want an agent to gather the figures and draft the work, but I will approve any payment or account change myself. The tool in the source case was GitLab Duo.
Tip: Keep the agent in 'propose, don't pay' mode: let it gather numbers and draft messages, and approve any payment or account change yourself.
