Why it matters

Coding agents are moving from autocomplete to doing whole tasks: reading a codebase, making a plan and changing many files. This case is a concrete example of where that works in practice. It is one of 221 sightings filed under Software Development on Agent Sightings (number 41 by interest), and one of 8 involving Augment.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Augment or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

I want a coding agent to plan first, work on a branch, and show me the diff before anything is merged. The tool in the source case was Augment.

Saved

Tip: Work on a fresh branch, ask for a plan before edits, and review the diff and test results before merging.
