06AI-assisted software development
Workspace-Aware AI Agents
Instead of treating code as something to paste in and out of chat, the prototype can work inside an actual project directory.
I added workspace switching so the prototype can point itself at a real project directory, including this Next.js portfolio site, and work from inside the codebase. It can inspect files, follow the project structure, create features, modify existing code, and coordinate changes across multiple files.
That changes the texture of the interaction. The agent is no longer only describing what I might do next or handing me code to copy. It can act on the same artifacts I am working on, which makes the experience feel much closer to collaborating inside a software environment.
