How work ships
Guildly's core promise is that agents move fast but nothing reaches your real codebase without a human saying yes. Here's the pipeline that enforces it.
The sandbox
All agent work happens on a separate copy of your code called the sandbox branch. Your main branch, the one your live product runs from, is never touched directly. If an agent has a bad day, the damage is contained to a place you haven't approved yet.
The pipeline, step by step
- You ask. A chat message to the manager, or an idea from the inbox.
- It becomes a ticket. For bigger work, the PM writes a PRD first and you approve the plan before anything is built.
- An engineer builds it on the sandbox, on its own branch, and opens a pull request (a packaged, reviewable change).
- The reviewer checks it. A separate agent whose whole job is finding problems reads the change. The builder never reviews its own work, and only the reviewer can merge into the sandbox.
- You review it. The ticket lands in Human Review with plain test steps. You try the result and approve or request changes.
- It ships. After your approval, the manager promotes the accumulated approved work from sandbox to main, in controlled batches.
What each safeguard buys you
- Separate reviewer: a second set of eyes on every change, so obvious mistakes die before reaching you.
- Human review: agents literally cannot mark work as done. Only your approval moves a ticket to the finish line.
- Batched promotion: main only ever receives work that made it through every gate, so it stays deployable.
The escape hatch
Sometimes you want speed over ceremony: a typo on the live site, an urgent fix. Give an agent a direct instruction and it can act immediately, then it asks you to confirm before pushing to main. The gate is still there, it's just one question instead of a pipeline.
