AI coding agents are autonomous tools designed for software developers and engineering teams to plan, write, test, and debug code directly within IDEs, terminals, and version control systems. Unlike standard code-completion assistants that suggest single snippets, these agents execute complex multi-file tasks and manage end-to-end workflows from issue triage to production deployment.
