Build a whole feature with coding agents

Give a workflow's cards to your own coding agents in building order; each card opens when the steps before it are merged and verified.

In short

"Build with coding agents" hands a workflow's task cards to your own coding agent one by one, in building order. Independent steps run side by side. For each pull request, {{brand}} judges the result with tests the agent cannot change. A card opens only once the cards it waits for are merged and verified.

Before you start

Make the plan with cards and tests. See /help/designer/create-the-plan.
Every card needs tests to judge its work, and those tests need a preview address. See /help/boards/coding-agent-on-a-card.
Who: starting the build needs your password and the rights you need to give each card to an agent (see /help/boards/coding-agent-on-a-card). Only the person who started it can renew a credential.
Plan: Designer and Boards must both be on your plan. How many cards may have an agent at once depends on the plan (the start form says how many).

Steps

Open the workflow, choose "Panels" and then "Build with coding agents" (or "Build this feature with coding agents" after making the plan).
Read the cards in building order: "Starts first", or "Waits for" another card, and each card's locked tests.
Choose "Cards with an agent at once" and how long credentials last.
Type your password once and press "Start building".
Copy each card's credential and the kamocore mcp entry now - they are shown only this once.

Result: the build shows "Building" and "2 of 5 steps verified". Each step reads "Waiting", "Agent working", "Ready for review", "Merged, testing" or "Done". Choose "Timeline" above the steps to read the whole run in one line of time: when it started, when each card was given to its agent and done (and verified), and when it stopped or finished.

Good to know

Your workspace may have only so many cards with an agent at once; the start form says how many.
A credential acts for nothing until its card opens. When one ends first, the build says "Needs you: renew" and only the person who started it can renew.
Ready for review is never Done: a person merges, then the card's tests must pass.
"Stop building" ends waiting cards and their credentials at once. Tick "Also take back the cards that are with an agent now" to stop those too.

A credential is a key Treat each credential like a password. It is shown once and acts only for its card.

If something goes wrong

"A card has no tests to judge its work. Add them, then the build goes on."
"Set a preview address for the tests first."
"Waiting for room: the workspace already has as many cards with an agent as it may." - it goes on when a card finishes.
"A card failed its verification rounds. Look at its pull request on the board."
