Describe the change on the issue
Label an issue and the agent picks it up the moment it opens. It reads the surrounding code, follows the conventions it finds, runs the suite, and opens the pull request. Nobody has to copy the ticket into a prompt.

A labeled issue becomes a pull request
The agent doing the work is version controlled
Prompt, trigger, repositories, and spend caps live in one file in your repository. Creating or changing the agent is a pull request, live on merge, so the review process you already have becomes the change-control process for your automation.

Hand off a task from your terminal
Run one command from the repository you are standing in and the agent takes it from there. The repo is cloned at its default branch, dependency installs come from a cached image, and the session streams into your terminal or into a CI log.
$ agent session start "add rest-period warnings to the schedule editor" --watch

Review the diff in the sandbox where it was made, run the tests in the exact environment the agent used, and open the dev server it started. Reviewing agent work does not mean pulling the branch down first.
