Coding agent
코딩 에이전트
An AI agent that reads program code, fixes it, runs it, and tests the result on its own.
Overview
Older coding helpers only suggested the next few lines of code. A coding agent takes a goal such as "fix this error." It finds and reads the files that matter, changes the code, runs the program to check the result, and fixes it again if it is wrong.
It runs inside a developer's editor or in a terminal, and it can be given jobs that take hours. But code that seems to work can still hide bugs or security holes, so a person needs to review what was changed.
An everyday example
It is not a book that explains a recipe. It is an assistant who walks into the kitchen, cooks the dish, tastes it, and adjusts the seasoning.
Why it matters
Coding is the first and biggest area where AI does real work. Coding takes a large share of AI usage, which is why a new model's coding skill is the first thing people compare.
