What it does
CodeAF is a coding agent that splits a request into tasks, runs each on its own branch in its own copy of the repo, and merges only what passes an independent check.
Pareto crewing. Each task gets a worker, a planner and a checker, and each seat can run on a different model picked for cost and quality.Official source 1 ↗
Fire-and-steer tasks. /task hands off a job that starts at once and splits into parts running side by side, each checked, while your conversation stays free.Official source 1 ↗
senior-dev specialist. A built-in harness for large changes that works alone for an hour or more from one brief to a checked result on a branch.Official source 1 ↗
Standing orders. Rules, scheduled reminders and watches written in plain English, scoped to a chat, a project or everywhere.Official source 1 ↗
Headless mode for other agents. Claude Code or Codex can call codeaf do with --json and get back one result and an exit code.Official source 1 ↗
Rewind. /rewind undoes the conversation, and with furrow the files rewind too, including ones git never tracked.Official source 1 ↗

Billing details
A $500 daily backstop pauses and asks, any plan estimated over $100 waits for approval, and you can set a tighter limit per conversation. Codex plan calls show no dollar price and stop when the plan's usage limit is reached.Official source 1 ↗ · Official source 2 ↗

Replacing Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode with an agent that runs several checked tasks in parallel on cheaper open models.Official source 1 ↗
Handing off a cross-file fix or migration to run unattended on a branch until its tests pass.Official source 1 ↗
Bring your own model. There is no hosted model; you need a provider key, a local Ollama setup or a Codex plan, and your code goes to whichever provider you pick.Official source 1 ↗
Vendor benchmark. The accuracy and cost claims come from AgentField's own DeepSWE run on 113 tasks with one open model.Official source 1 ↗
Telemetry on by default. Telemetry and the Model Pool send model-performance counts, not code, unless you switch them off.Official source 1 ↗
