AI in an isolated copy

Let an AI agent work in a copy of the project, review what it did and bring it into your files.

Step by step

Select a step to jump to that moment in the video.

  1. 00:01The AI can work in a separate copy of the project

  3. 00:10Open the agent's session from the AI menu
  4. 00:15It changes the copy, not your files
  5. 00:22Review what it did before bringing it into your files
  6. 00:29Happy with it? Bring the change into your files
  7. 00:33Your app.js now has the sorted list, not yet committed
