Building your own CLI Coding Agent with Pydantic-AI
CLI coding agents are a fundamentally different tool to chatbots or
autocomplete tools – they’re agents that can read code, run tests, and
update a codebase. Ben O’Mahony explains that while
commercial tools are impressive, they don’t understand the particular
context of our environment and the eccentricities of our specific project.
Instead we can build our own coding agent by assembling open source tools,
using our specific development standards for: testing, documentation
production, code reasoning, and file system operations.
