Agentic Coding
Software development where an AI agent autonomously plans, writes, tests and ships code with minimal human keystrokes.
Browse all definitionsIn detail
Agentic coding is the next step beyond AI assisted code suggestions. The agent is given a goal, plans how to achieve it, makes file changes across an entire codebase, runs tests, fixes its own errors and may even deploy. Tools like Anthropic's Claude Code, Cursor's Background Agents, OpenAI's Codex and open source utilities like OpenClaw operate this way. The human role shifts from writing code to setting goals, reviewing diffs and intervening on critical paths.
