A key challenge working with coding agents is having them both test what they’ve built and demonstrate that software to you, their supervisor. This goes beyond automated tests—we need artifacts that show their progress and help us see exactly what the agent-produced software is able to do. I’ve just released two new tools aimed at this problem: Showboat and Rodney.
Proving code actually works
Showboat: Agents build documents to demo their work
Rodney: CLI browser automation designed to work with Showboat
