Factory is an AI software engineer. Tag @Factory in any channel or thread as soon as bugs, incidents, feature requests, and questions come in.
How it works
1. Mention @Factory in a channel, thread, or DM with a task.
2. Factory reads the thread for context, including replies and attached files and images.
3. It spins up a cloud dev environment, or runs on a workspace you configure, then writes and tests code.
4. It posts progress in the thread and asks you there when it needs a decision.
5. When it's done it pushes its changes, opens a pull request, and reports back in the thread.
What you can do
- Fix a bug: "@Factory fix the login redirect bug described above"
- Investigate an incident: "@Factory run an RCA on this alert"
- Implement a feature: "@Factory add a feature flag for the new checkout flow"
- Review code: "@Factory review this PR and suggest improvements"
- Follow up: tag @Factory again in the thread with more instructions
