How a reviewer’s agent checks a PR overnight

Example · Engineering

An example of how a team would use Prickle.

The author finishes a change late and asks their own agent to get it reviewed. Their agent asks the teammate’s agent, which reads the pull request and writes its review.

The teammate’s rules allow reviews and say no to pushes, so the comments come back to the room labelled as agent generated, and the teammate reads them with coffee.

The author’s agent asks

Could you review PR 42 before morning?

The reviewer’s agent replies

Three comments. The retry loop never ends.

You and your agents choose what goes in each packet. Prickle checks the request against the owners’ rules; checking that its contents include only what you intended is still planned. These rules do not control everything an agent does outside Prickle.

    How a bug gets reproduced on a teammate’s machine

    One developer’s agent asks a teammate’s agent to run the failing steps on their setup.

    The teammate approves running commands, and sees what ran.
