14-day engineering-agent pilot

Qualify one recurring engineering workflow before agents touch real repos.

AgentFoundry turns one Issue-to-PR, code-review, test/debug, dependency, security, or release workflow into a governed coding-agent pilot with a blueprint, scoped tools, approval gates, review evidence, and a human owner decision.

Team provides

  • one recurring engineering workflow
  • current manual baseline
  • repo/tools touched
  • success metric
  • approval boundary
  • handoff target

AgentFoundry delivers

  • Agent blueprint
  • repo/tool/data connections
  • governance rules
  • tool permission plan
  • execution plan
  • verification gates
  • execution records
  • Evidence Report samples
  • risk register
  • safe-stop notes
  • human approval checklist
Qualification gate

A good first engineering agent has pain, repeatability, repo access, and evidence.

The intake forces the minimum evidence needed to avoid vague pilots: baseline, success metric, repo/tools touched, and approval boundary.

Submit the workflow

Pain fit

The engineering workflow has a named owner, visible baseline, repeated delay, review burden, risk, or quality loss worth reducing.

System fit

Repos, tools, data, CI, cloud, documents, and handoff targets can be scoped behind explicit permissions.

Evidence fit

The pilot can produce traces, checks, changed files, approval logs, risk notes, and a PR, retry, narrow, or stop decision.

Acceptance evidence

The pilot ends with a PR, retry, narrow, or stop decision.

These records decide whether the agent should create a PR, propose a release handoff, retry, narrow, or stop.

One engineering workflow, one owner, one baseline, one measurable handoff
Repos touched, tool permissions, and human approval gates are explicit
Representative issues have traces and changed files
Quality checks include failures, not only wins
Safe-stop, monitoring, and improvement loop are documented
Pilot candidates

Start where engineering work is repetitive, reviewable, and governance-sensitive.

The best first agent has clear inputs, outputs, ownership, policy boundaries, verification gates, safe-stop needs, and a visible manual baseline.

Qualify my workflow

Issue-to-PR Workflow

Turn a scoped issue into plan, branch, diff, checks, risk notes, and PR-ready handoff.

Code Review Workflow

Inspect a branch or PR, find defects, check style and architecture rules, and produce review comments.

Test and Debug Workflow

Keep context across failing tests, logs, hypotheses, retries, fixes, and safe-stop decisions.

Dependency Upgrade Workflow

Upgrade a package, adjust code, run regressions, and prepare safe-stop notes.

Security Fix Workflow

Investigate an authorized codebase, suggest bounded fixes, run checks, and ask before PR or deploy steps.

Modernization Workflow

Translate legacy code, dependencies, or architecture decisions into small checked diffs and release notes.

Documentation Workflow

Update design notes, API docs, architecture summaries, and release handoff notes from actual code changes.

Blank Engineering Agent

Describe one recurring engineering job, define tools and approval rules, and turn it into a governed agent blueprint.

Foundry sprint plan

From engineering intent to governed coding-agent pilot.

The pilot proves whether one agent workflow can remove enough engineering work to justify hardening, release handoff, and expansion.

Day 1Pick one real engineering task and define what the owner needs the coding agent to accomplish.
Days 2–4Create the agent blueprint, connect repo/tools/data, set approval gates, and choose an execution target.
Days 5–10Run real or representative issues, collect review evidence, failures, escalations, owner feedback, and measurable time saved.
Days 11–13Tighten permissions, escalation rules, template copy, report fields, and stop/revert behavior.
Day 14Deliver a usable engineering agent, Evidence Report samples, owner guide, management controls, and next template recommendation.
Private engineering pilot intake

Share the engineering workflow to qualify first.

Submit the workflow, manual baseline, success metric, repo/tools touched, approval boundary, constraints, and handoff target.

Send one engineering job privately. We will review fit before proposing a narrow next step.

What happens after you submit

The first reply is a scope check, not a sales deck.

We use the intake to confirm the workflow, urgency, wanted next step, approval boundary, and evidence needed. If there is fit, the next step is the narrowest pilot plan for one engineering job.

First workload

Issue-to-PR is the first proof workload.

A repo-connected workflow can investigate a task or failed build, propose a patch, run verification, capture risk, and hand off an Evidence Report for human approval. This is now the company entry path, not a side example.

Day 1Pick one real engineering task and define what the owner needs the coding agent to accomplish.
Days 2–4Create the agent blueprint, connect repo/tools/data, set approval gates, and choose an execution target.
Days 5–10Run real or representative issues, collect review evidence, failures, escalations, owner feedback, and measurable time saved.
Days 11–13Tighten permissions, escalation rules, template copy, report fields, and stop/revert behavior.
Day 14Deliver a usable engineering agent, Evidence Report samples, owner guide, management controls, and next template recommendation.
