How to delegate a code fix, test run, and pull request to a bot with Abacusai Bot

Give a bot a repository and ask it to implement, test, and open a pull request.

Credentials. Bot chats run with full tool permissions and can act through your connected GitHub account, so limit that account's scope where possible.

Who it is forA developer with a repository and a bug or small feature that can be handed off overnight.

The problemRoutine fixes take focused time that could go to other work, and the change must still be tested and reviewed.

The outcomeA bot that inspects the repository, edits the code, runs the tests, and opens a pull request for your review.

What you need first

  • A macOS 13 or later, Windows, or Linux computer
  • A free Abacus.AI account, or a key for another supported model provider
  • Accounts for any services the bot should use, such as Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, or GitHub

Steps

  1. Install the desktop app from GitHub Releases and sign in or create a free account.
  2. Create a bot with a coding-focused instruction and a model you trust.
  3. Connect GitHub and register the local repository as a workspace in the app.
  4. Ask the bot to reproduce the bug, make the change, run the tests, and open a pull request.
  5. Review the diff and the pull request yourself before merging.

Prompt for your agent

Using AbacusAI Bot, register the local repository at <repo path> as a workspace for a bot, connect GitHub, and ask it to fix <issue>, run the test suite, and open a pull request. Report the branch name and test results. Verify that the test command actually ran and the diff matches the issue.

Caveat. Bot chats use full access by default with no sandbox, so the bot can edit files and run commands in your user account unless you switch the Profile page to Auto.
