deploy-coding-agent

An autonomous coding agent deployed with deepagents deploy. Given a task description, it plans, implements, tests, and commits changes inside a LangSmith sandbox with full shell access.

Prerequisites

Variable	Description
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY	Claude model access
LANGSMITH_API_KEY	Required for deploy and the LangSmith sandbox

Copy .env.example to .env and fill in both keys.

Deploy

deepagents deploy

The agent is deployed using the config in agent.json.

What to try

Once deployed, open the agent in LangSmith and send it tasks like:

• "Add a function that reverses a string and write a test for it"
• "Find all TODO comments in the repo and create a summary"
• "Refactor the main module to use dataclasses"

The agent follows a Plan → Implement → Review → Deliver workflow defined in AGENTS.md.

MCP servers: This example previously used mcp.json to wire in the LangChain docs MCP server. MCP servers are now workspace-level resources. Register them once with deepagents mcp-servers add --url <url> and reference them in a tools.json file.
