Autonomous Coding Agent with Self-Review, Quality Convergence, and Production-Ready Output
The AI coding agent that doesn't just generate code—it iterates until it's actually good.
Most AI coding assistants generate code and hope for the best. Coco is different:
All autonomous. All verifiable. All open source.
Current AI assistants:
Result: You spend hours debugging AI-generated code.
Coco measures 12 dimensions of code quality:
No fake scores. No hardcoded values. Real metrics.
Current state: 58.3% real measurements (up from 0%), with 41.7% still using safe defaults.
When tests fail, Coco:
Target: 70%+ of failures fixed in first iteration.
Complex tasks are decomposed and executed by specialized agents:
Agents work in parallel where possible, coordinate when needed.
Before saving any file:
Result: Zero broken builds from AI edits.

| Analyzer | What It Measures | Data Source |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Lines, branches, functions, statements | c8/v8 instrumentation |
| Security | Vulnerabilities, dangerous patterns | npm audit + static analysis |
| Complexity | Cyclomatic complexity, maintainability | AST traversal |
| Duplication | Code similarity, redundancy | Token-based comparison |
| Build | Compilation success | tsc/build execution |
| Import | Missing dependencies, circular deps | AST + package.json |
npm install -g corbat-coco
coco init
Follow prompts to configure:
coco "Build a REST API with JWT authentication"
That's it. Coco will:
coco resume
coco quality ./src
Goal: Replace fake metrics with real measurements
Results:
Before:
// All hardcoded 😱
dimensions: {
testCoverage: 80, // Fake
security: 100, // Fake
complexity: 90, // Fake
// ... all fake
}
After:
// Real measurements ✅
const coverage = await this.coverageAnalyzer.analyze(files);
const security = await this.securityScanner.scan(files);
const complexity = await this.complexityAnalyzer.analyze(files);
dimensions: {
testCoverage: coverage.lines.percentage, // REAL
security: security.score, // REAL
complexity: complexity.score, // REAL
// ... 7 more real metrics
}

A: Partially. The quality scoring system (Week 1) is production-ready and thoroughly tested. Multi-agent coordination (Week 5-8) is implemented but needs more real-world validation. Use for internal projects first.
A: Similar approach (autonomous iteration, quality metrics, multi-agent), but Coco is:
A: These are safe defaults, not fake metrics:
style: 100 when no linter is configured (legitimate default)correctness, completeness, robustness, testQuality, documentation are pending Week 2-4 implementationsWe're committed to reaching 0% hardcoded by end of Phase 1 (Week 4).
A: Yes, but:
A: No. Coco is a force multiplier, not a replacement:
