Agent Overview

Refact.ai Agent is now available, bringing autonomous capabilities to your development workflow. The agent can independently gather context, create and edit documents, execute shell commands, and much more.

Real-time Collaboration

A standout feature of Refact.ai Agent is its real-time awareness of your actions. The agent automatically stays in sync with your codebase, eliminating the need to manually provide context about recent changes.

Autonomous Patching

Refact.ai Agent can autonomously create and edit files. The process works in two steps:

  2. You approve the “Patches” before they’re applied

You can streamline the process by enabling automatic patch approval. Toggle the “Allow Patches” option to let the Agent make changes without requiring permission each time:
