Quick Start
Get from sign-up to your first AI-generated pull request in under 5 minutes.
-
Sign in
Go to your Agent HQ instance and sign in with GitHub or Google. Your workspace is created automatically on first login.
-
Create a project
Click the + button next to “Projects” in the sidebar. Give it a name and optionally connect a GitHub repository. The repo gives Pilot context about your codebase so it can write better code.
-
Start a conversation
Click New Conversation inside your project. This opens a conversation with Pilot.
-
Describe what you need
Type a message like:
Add a dark mode toggle to the settings page. Use the existing theme system and persist the preference in localStorage.
Pilot will acknowledge your request, ask any clarifying questions, and create a task.
-
Watch it execute
The task appears on your Task Board. Click on it to see real-time execution logs, code changes, and terminal output. Pilot clones your repo, creates a branch, writes the code, and runs tests.
-
Review and merge
When done, you’ll see the generated code diff and a link to the pull request on GitHub. Review the changes and merge when satisfied.
