Getting started

Quickstart

Sign in, connect a repository and provider, then complete your first reviewed coding-agent run.

This guide walks through the hosted private-alpha workflow. If you are running the project from source, use local development instead.

Prerequisites

You need:

  • approved private-alpha access;
  • a GitHub account with access to the repository you want to use;
  • permission to authorize the LegionCode GitHub app;
  • an API credential for a supported model provider.
Use a test repository first

Start with a repository and branch where you can safely inspect, revise, or discard generated changes.

Start a run

  1. Open the agents workspace and select Connect GitHub.
  2. Complete GitHub authorization.
  3. Select a repository and its base branch.
  4. Open provider settings, connect a provider, and choose a model.
  5. Start a task with a narrow outcome and a clear verification request.

A useful first task is:

1Fix the empty-state copy in the repository picker. Reuse the existing component styles, do not change authentication behavior, and run its focused test.

LegionCode prepares an isolated workspace, streams the agent response, and records changed files for review.

Review the result

Open Review after the run produces changes. Check:

  • every changed path belongs to the requested scope;
  • additions and deletions match the explanation;
  • tests or validation commands actually ran;
  • no generated secrets, environment files, or unrelated formatting changes were added.

Continue the same conversation to request corrections. Git operations remain explicit; a completed agent response is not an approved merge.
