Coding use cases for AI bots Page 2 of 8
Coding bots work in your repository and terminal next to you. These use cases triage bug reports into fix plans, review pull requests, reproduce bugs in a sandbox and draft a patch, keep long-running coding agents on track, and write tests and docs. Many start from an event, such as a new issue or a failed build, and most use GitHub and a terminal.
