I'm thinking of something like https://mentat.ai/, but that actually works.
I will provide a paragraph or so describing the change I want made. Then it should create a GitHub PR, which I will review and leave only a few comments before merging. The whole process should take less than 30 minutes. This should work fairly reliably.
I tried this yesterday and it failed haha:
