GyroCode Use Cases
Real development workflows powered by GyroCode — from onboarding to refactoring to team collaboration.
Onboarding to a New Codebase
plan agentUse the plan agent to understand any codebase quickly — without accidentally changing anything.
- 1.Open GyroCode desktop app and load your project directory
- 2.Select the Plan agent mode from the agent switcher
- 3.Ask: “Walk me through this codebase's architecture”
- 4.Get a detailed breakdown of the module structure and data flow
- 5.Request a summary you can share with teammates via session export
Feature Development
build agentDescribe what you want built and let the build agent handle implementation, including edge cases and tests.
- 1.Open your project in GyroCode and switch to Build agent mode
- 2.Describe the feature: “Add email verification to the signup flow”
- 3.GyroCode reads existing auth code and builds incrementally
- 4.Review each file change before it's written — or use auto-approve mode
- 5.Tests are generated alongside implementation automatically
Debugging Complex Issues
build agentPaste an error or describe a bug. GyroCode traces through your code, identifies the root cause, and fixes it.
- 1.Share the error stack trace directly in the GyroCode prompt
- 2.Agent reads the relevant files and traces the execution path
- 3.Hypothesis is proposed with a rationale before any change
- 4.Fix is applied with a minimal diff and re-test confirmation
- 5.Root cause explanation is output for your records
Codebase Refactoring
build agentSystematic refactoring across many files — renaming, extracting abstractions, updating patterns — done safely.
- 1.Use plan agent first: “Find all places where X pattern is used”
- 2.Switch to build agent with the plan in context
- 3.Refactoring is applied file by file with incremental commits
- 4.GyroCode checks for regressions by running tests after each change
- 5.Summary diff is presented before finalizing
Test Coverage Generation
build agentGo from 40% to 90% test coverage in a single session. GyroCode understands your testing framework and writes real tests.
- 1.Ask: “Write comprehensive tests for the payment module”
- 2.Agent reads existing tests to match style and framework
- 3.Unit, integration, and edge case tests are generated
- 4.Mock setup and test fixtures are created automatically
- 5.Coverage report checked after each test file
Remote Team Development
client/serverRun GyroCode on a remote server and drive it from your desktop or connect teammates to shared sessions.
- 1.Deploy GyroCode server on your team's development infrastructure
- 2.Connect from the GyroCode desktop app on any machine
- 3.Full agent capability with server-side compute and storage
- 4.Multiple team members can join the same session for collaborative review
- 5.All actions are logged for audit and compliance
