How it works

Intake & Plan

  • Work starts where you askDescribe a feature, tag Obvious in Slack or assign a ticket.
  • Set work in motionRun tasks on demand, from triggers or on a schedule.
  • Blueprint as SpecsYour request becomes one spec that every task and PR follows.
  • You approve the approachSee how the work breaks down and refine it before agents build.

Define & Secure

  • Loop DesignerDesign multi-agent workflows with custom steps, handoffs, and human approval gates.
  • Security onboardingAutoBuild scans your repo for security risks and patterns to guide how agents work.
  • Skills & KnowledgeAutoBuild learns your codebase and docs, while agents apply your team's reusable skills.
  • GatesSet review rules, required checks, and who has the final say on merges.

Build & Verify

  • Independent sandboxesEach agent works in its own cloud environment, many at once.
  • QA with evidenceAgents test changes and attach screenshots, test results, and API responses.
  • Automated fixesFailed checks and review feedback go back to agents for fixes and retesting.
  • CI & Code ReviewAutoBuild runs your configured checks, routes specialized reviews, and gives every PR a reading guide.

Automate & Execute

  • Factory CockpitSee what's running, done and waiting on you, across projects.
  • Cloud computersAgents keep working while your laptop is closed.
  • Self-improvementAutoBuild learns from each run and proposes fixes for your approval.
  • Scheduled runsPut recurring work like dependency updates on a schedule.
  • Migrations + Big builds

  • Feature delivery

  • Issue triage + Bug fixing

  • CI + Incident response

  • Docs + Recurring work

Frequently asked questions

AutoBuild is an Obvious native system applied to building software.

Software teams already run on systems: specs, code review, test suites. AutoBuild lets you encode your team’s technical standards and product judgement into a system that agents follow.

You define how a change gets planned, built, and checked, what evidence counts as done, and which moments need a human. The result is that you can run many projects at once, without compromising your quality bar and confidence in the output.

AutoBuild gives builders more capacity to bring ideas to life.

Learn more about AutoBuild →

A connected git provider, the repos you want to use, and a dev stack that installs, builds and tests. AutoBuild sets up a sandbox for each repo and checks the stack works before agents start. Your CI commands in config.yml run as they are. A snapshot of the working setup lets later tasks start in seconds.

An orchestrator agent plans the work and hands focused tasks to worker agents, each on its own sandbox with your repo cloned. It pins a Blueprint spec as the source of truth and breaks the work into tasks that run in parallel where they can. Coder agents open PRs and own them through merge. QA collects evidence automatically, review is routed by file pattern, and multi-PR projects are released together.

Yes, that's the default. Connect GitHub (or another git provider), pick your repos, and AutoBuild sets up a sandbox for each. Setup scans your code, checks it installs, builds and tests, maps your system and runs a security analysis before it writes the .obvious/ contract. Your existing CI keeps running, and AutoBuild's QA and review checks post next to it.

Learn about AutoBuild repository context →

You author the work. You design the execution loop, approve the plan before any code is written and approve PRs as they land. Between those points AutoBuild runs on its own, and when it hits a trade-off it asks you with a recommendation. You can steer a running task at any time.

Yes. config.yml sets the base branch, merge method, review rules, CI commands and QA paths. obvious.md holds guidance and hard rules for agents, and .obvious/skills/ holds their runbooks. Turn on humanMerge and a person performs every merge. Platform safety rules and permission gates always apply, and repo settings can't weaken them.

A daily digest in your workspace and Slack sums up yesterday: PRs opened, merged and closed, and how long the work took. Every run keeps an audit log of what happened, and each PR comes with a reading guide, so review starts with a five-minute brief instead of a cold diff.

Copilot and Cursor help you write code in your editor. AutoBuild runs the work around the code. A fleet of agents plans, builds, tests and reviews in parallel in the cloud, inside the execution loop you defined. You approve the plan and the PR, and you can keep your editor for everything else.

AutoBuild tracks spend per task, per project and per workspace, so you can see what each piece of work costs and watch cost per PR as the factory improves.
