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 18 by interest), and one of 6 involving CodeRabbit.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into CodeRabbit or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
I want a coding agent to take on work like this across our repositories, show its plan, and wait for review before anything merges. The tool in the source case was CodeRabbit.
Tip: Work on a fresh branch, ask for a plan before edits, and review the diff and test results before merging.
