For the purposes of this market, the coding assistant must be able to:
Be given a description of a feature to implement or bug to resolve in a pre-existing repository of meaningful size (ex: enterprise product).
Without any further guidance other than asking clarification questions about the feature request be able to write the code and test it to the point where it would be considered "production ready".
Submit and successfully pass code review.
Please note this market:
Purposefully excludes small repositories precisely to ensure the challenge of identifying exactly where the code needs to be modified is there.
Will resolve to Yes regardless of whether the repository is polyglot or not.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
