Single Prompt - AI Coding Agent

This project implements an AI coding agent capable of autonomously building software projects based on a single user prompt. It leverages the Anthropic API to execute the entire development process, creating a fully functional project with minimal human intervention.

Features 🤖

• Development plan creation
• Step-by-step project building using AI
• File reading, writing, and modification capabilities
• Terminal command execution for package installation and other system-level operations
• Logging of LLM history

Project Structure 📚

• main.py: The entry point of the application
• idea_gathering.py: Handles the initial project idea interpretation phase
• build.py: Executes the development plan
• llm_thread.py: Manages conversations with the Anthropic Claude model
• llm_utils.py: Utility functions for file operations and terminal commands

Usage 🚀

1. Install Python
2. Create a secret_key.txt file in the project root and add your Anthropic API key
3. Run the main script: main.py
4. Provide a project idea when prompted

The script will then:

1. Set up the project directory and logging
2. Connect to the Anthropic API
3. Interpret your project idea and create a development plan
4. Build the project step by step based on the AI-generated plan

Important Notes 👈

• Ensure you have the necessary permissions to create directories and files in the specified path
• User confirmation is required before executing terminal commands
• Only files inside the project directory can be accessed by the agent
• This tool is designed to work autonomously, with minimal user intervention after the initial prompt

Logging 📝

All activities are logged in agent_logs/agent_log.txt. Check this file for detailed information about the build process.

Caution 🛑

This script executes terminal commands and modifies files on your system. Always review the actions it's about to take and use it in a controlled environment. It's recommended to use this tool in a sandboxed or isolated development environment.

Limitations 🍼

• The AI Agent's capabilities are limited by the underlying language model
• Limited to locally installable tools and packages; no web browsing capability
• Complex projects may require human intervention
• May not always produce optimal or bug-free code
• Optimized for macOS
