How GPT Pilot Works

Imagine building an intricate LEGO structure. You need to gather the right blocks (code), follow a design blueprint (requirements), and refine it as you go. Here’s how GPT Pilot acts in this scenario:

  1. You start by specifying the name and purpose of your application.
  2. The Product Owner agent provides direction but doesn’t interfere.
  3. The Specification Writer agent asks clarifying questions on unclear project requirements.
  4. The Architect agent outlines the technology stack and ensures installations.
  5. The Tech Lead agent formulates tasks dependent on the project scope.
  6. Next, the Developer agent composes a plain-language description of the implementation actions.
  7. The Code Monkey agent translates this into actual code changes.
  8. A thorough review takes place via the Reviewer agent to address any discrepancies.
  9. Should problems arise, the Troubleshooter agent assists in giving feedback, and the Debugger agent helps to rectify issues.
  10. Last, the Technical Writer agent creates documentation for the resultant application.
