# Archon for engineering: Hand off the small fixes. Keep the big calls.

> Bring a GitHub project into Archon. It works on its own copy, shows each step, and nothing reaches your repository until you approve.

## What changes

- **Small fixes off your plate.** Made on its own copy, brought to you for review.
- **Errors looked into.** It reads the error and the code, and says what it found.
- **Release notes, written.** For your team and for your customers.

## What you hand off

- **Fixes you review, not write.** Ask for a change in your own words. Archon makes it on its own copy and brings you the result to review. You might ask: "Fix the date format on the invoices page."
- **Issues turned into work.** It reads the issue, the code and the error, and says what it found before it changes anything. You might ask: "Look into the Sentry error from last night's release."
- **Release notes, written.** It reads what changed and writes notes for your team and for customers. You might ask: "Write the release notes for this week's changes."
- **Questions about the code, answered.** Ask how something works and get an answer from the code itself. You might ask: "How does a refund reach Stripe?"

## An agent for the standing job

**A triage desk.** Make an agent that reads each new error and files an issue with what it found.

## Works with

GitHub, Linear, Jira and Confluence, Sentry, Datadog, Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare, Supabase, PostHog, and every connector at https://heyarchon.com/connectors.

## You stay in charge

- **Asks first.** Before sending, publishing, buying, deleting or widening access. An action you can't undo is asked every time.
- **Sees only what you can.** Each person's Archon reads only what that person can. Rooms keep their own permissions.
- **Every step on the record.** What it read, did and changed, for the person the Work is for.

## Questions

### Can it change our code on its own?

It works on its own copy. No change reaches your repository until you approve it.

### Which code hosts does it work with?

It works on GitHub projects. It works with GitLab, Linear, Jira and Sentry through their connectors.

### Does our code go to an AI provider?

Only what each task needs, and only to the provider you connect. Or run models on your Mac, with Ollama or LM Studio.

### How does it know how we work?

From your Library, rooms, work and connected tools. Each person's Archon can access only what that person can.

### What does it cost?

Nothing during the beta. When plans start you pay for people, never for agents, and we will write a month before any plan starts.
