Not just system prompts. Everything on Broccoli goes through multiple rounds of design critiques, and then multiple rounds of code review

We have not! How much control do you have over Cursor Cloud Agent?

I'd say it's one-shot for 60% of the PRs we ship today. As I mentioned in the post, the rest still go through a lot of back and forth especially at the design stage.

I think it totally depends on the team on what the correct workflow is. The agentic workflow should accelerate what you have instead of asking your team to adopt something new. Thi…

Thank you! We found this approach for both plan critique and code review to be extremely effective

Haha we are definitely like-minded because our internal Broccoli is actually on Firestore. That being said, Firestore is an acquired taste so we rewrote the OSS backend to Postgres…

We use firebase which supports the preview environments. It's mainly for front end changes though. Are you looking for a solution for backend changes as well?

100% on using linear as the source of truth! We went a bit further and just use Linear as the prompt. So there isn't a human written one adding context that lives elsewhere

We don’t believe PM or eng can write the best prompt or spec, so we don’t ask them to. One real Linear ticket from a few months back that we assigned to broccoli: Store post-proces…

We are not trying to compete with OpenAI and Anthropic! We open source it because there's interest from other startups. Teams would use Anthropic and OpenAI, but they shouldn't jus…

Oh got it! In this case, the main difference is that we go through a flow from design to implement using our own prompts, and uses both Codex and Claude Code so they can improve of…

It's a bit of trade-off. If we spin up a new container every time (which we do when we were using Google Cloud Run), we had to pay API pricing. However, with Blaxel, we can set con…

Why was the time to first token slow? Was it because of the spin up time for containers? That was an issue for us when we were running on Google's Cloud Run. We switched to Blaxel …

Good point! Adding that to our list of to-dos - we don't use Jira but I guess it's still very popular!

The time saved just goes to TikTok / Reddit / Instagram etc. There's plenty of time wasted waiting for the AI to finish working
