Workflow
Built for builder direction moments
builder-shares-context
The builder sends a focused technical question with approved app context, latest action summary, code snippet, logs, or URL.
expert-responds
The platform queue routes the request to an available community code reviewer, who claims it and provides exact guidance comments.
prompt-returns
The builder sees raw expert comments in the platform and gets an agent-ready prompt through CLI or MCP.
MCP ready
Connect Claude Code, Codex, Base44, Lovable, or other agent tools.
The MCP server exposes tools that an agent can call directly: submit a guidance request, fetch exact expert comments, and retrieve the synthesized agent-ready prompt.
