Summary
This post introduces GitLab Duo Workflow, an agentic AI solution in private beta that operates within VS Code. It demonstrates how Duo Workflow can automate complex development tasks by understanding project structure and making coordinated changes across a codebase, exemplified by implementing a new lint rule and updating multiple files. The workflow involves reading issue details, analyzing project structure, planning changes, drafting new rules, making consistent code modifications, and staging them for review. This enhances consistency, saves time, reduces context switching, and keeps a human in the loop.
