Agent Auto Coder

This project is an experimental tool that leverages Anthropic's Agent SDK to automatically generate code based on user requirements. It utilizes the Anthropic API to power its AI capabilities.

This agent is designed to take high-level specifications and implement them in code, streamlining the development process and reducing manual coding effort. The agent runs in non-interactive mode, making it suitable for automated workflows.

Features

• Automatic code generation from user requirements
• Integration with Anthropic's Agent SDK
• Non-interactive operation for seamless automation
• Docker support for containerized execution

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+ (for local development)
• Docker & Docker Compose (for containerized execution)
• Anthropic API key (set via ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable)

Local Development

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/nnance/agent-auto-coder.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

cd agent-auto-coder

3. Install dependencies:

npm install

4. Create a .env file with your API key:

echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key-here" > .env

5. Run the agent:

npm start "Your prompt here"

Docker Usage

Build the Docker Image

docker build -t agent-auto-coder .

Run with Docker

docker run --env ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key-here agent-auto-coder "Your prompt here"

Or using environment file:

docker run --env-file .env agent-auto-coder "Your prompt here"

Run with Docker Compose

1. Ensure your .env file contains ANTHROPIC_API_KEY:

echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key-here" > .env

2. Run the container:

docker-compose run --rm agent-coder "Your prompt here"

Or with a specific prompt in the docker-compose.yml:

docker-compose run --rm agent-coder

Examples

Generate a utility function:

docker run --env-file .env agent-auto-coder "Create a function that validates email addresses"

Refactor existing code (from local file mounted as volume):

docker run --env-file .env -v $(pwd):/app/input agent-auto-coder "Refactor the code in input/utils.js to improve performance"

Development

Scripts

• npm run build - Compile TypeScript to JavaScript
• npm start - Run the agent with a prompt argument
• npm run lint - Run Biome linter
• npm run format - Format code with Biome

Environment Variables

• ANTHROPIC_API_KEY - Your Anthropic API key (required)
