Reported experience
What they did
The author posted that their custom-built agent had just made its first code change to its own repository. The post is a single short announcement. It doesn't describe the agent's tooling, the task it was given, or how much a person reviewed or approved.
How it went
The only outcome stated is that the first self-made code change happened. The post gives no details on the change, its quality, or any numbers.
Worth knowing
The source is a one-line post with no setup, cost, or caveats, so look elsewhere for implementation details.
Example prompts
My agent project lives in the repo at [path to repo]. Add a way for the agent to propose and make a small change to its own code, such as [small improvement, e.g. add a new tool or fix a typo], on a separate branch with tests run first. Finish when it has produced one commit on that branch, and don't merge or push until I've reviewed the diff.
