Software Developer for AI-Powered CodeForge Agent
Were seeking a skilled Software Developer to design and build "CodeForge Agent," an AI-powered application.
This tool will:
- Accept user prompts to generate applications in various programming languages using the Claude 3.7 Sonnet API.
- Troubleshoot errors (syntax, runtime, deployment) by looping back to Claude for fixes.
- Integrate generated code into VS Code for local editing.
- Deploy finished applications to Vercel with a live URL.
- Feature a polished GUI and CLI for seamless user interaction.
This is a fast-paced, high-impact project with an estimated completion time of 1-2 weeks for a skilled developer working full-time.
- Core Development:
- Integrate the Claude 3.7 Sonnet API (Anthropic) to generate multi-file application code from natural language prompts.
- Build a file management system to parse and save Claudes output into a structured project directory (e.g., app.py, requirements.txt).
- Automate deployment to Vercel via Git and Vercel CLI, returning live URLs.
- Troubleshooting Loop:
- Implement error detection (syntax via linters like flake8, runtime via local execution, deployment via Vercel logs).
- Design an iterative feedback system to send errors back to Claude 3.7 Sonnet, receive fixes, and update code (max 3 retries).
- Ensure robust testing of the loop with simulated errors (e.g., missing imports, syntax issues).
- IDE Integration:
- Script integration with VS Code to open project folders and install dependencies automatically.
- UI/CLI Development:
- Develop a cross-platform GUI (Tkinter or PyQt) with a dark theme, input form, real-time log pane, and action buttons (e.g., Generate, Deploy, Edit).
- Create a CLI interface (e.g., codeforge generate --prompt "X") using click or argparse.
- Polish & Testing:
- Ensure compatibility across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Add error handling (e.g., pop-ups for API failures) and user-friendly feedback.
- Write documentation (README) and package the app (e.g., PyInstaller).
- Collaboration:
- Work closely with the project lead to refine requirements and iterate based on feedback.
- Deliver a fully functional prototype within the estimated timeline.
- Duration: 1-2 weeks full-time (~42-58 hours) for a skilled developer.
- Phases:
1. Core Functionality (12-16 hours): API integration, code generation, VS Code, Vercel deployment.
2. Troubleshooting Loop (10-14 hours): Error detection, Claude feedback, iterative fixes.
3. UI/CLI Build (8-12 hours): GUI with dark theme, CLI interface.
4. Polish & Testing (12-16 hours): Cross-platform tests, docs, packaging.
- Deliverables:
- Fully functional "CodeForge Agent" executable or script.
- Source code with inline comments.
- README with setup instructions and usage examples.
- Deployed sample app (e.g., Flask CRUD API) as proof of concept.
