This fills a real gap in the ecosystem. Worth adopting early.

Been using this for 3 months — it's become indispensable.

80/100 · ship

This is where all development is heading — describe what you want, AI plans and implements. GitHub has distribution advantage.

Skeptic
80/100 · ship

The team ships fast and responds to feedback. Good sign.

45/100 · skip

Still limited in what it can handle. Works for straightforward issues but struggles with anything architecturally complex.

Builder

80/100 · ship

Issue-to-PR workflow is the right abstraction. The planning step prevents the 'just generate code' antipattern.
