# Persistent background coding agent

Run durable development tasks across sandboxes and synchronize code changes seamlessly

[](/text/usecases/persistent-background-coding-agent/index.md)

- When you askReceive coding task
- ThenRun tests and refactor in sandbox
- ResultRequest review before pushing code

Maintain persistent software development workflows across local and remote environments. The bot executes shell commands, runs test suites, manages long-running refactoring tasks, and synchronizes work across available development environments while preserving state across sessions.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
Connect to available developer environments to execute coding tasks. Inspect the project directory, run tests, and perform requested code modifications. Save execution checkpoints and state transitions to the database. Before pushing changes to remote branches or deleting any files, prompt the developer for explicit approval.
