Example patch creation with Claude Code:
$ claude -p "Fix the dont -> don't typo in @Documentation/power/opp.rst. Commit the result"
Done! The typo has been fixed and committed.
Is this actually how people use AI agents? I've never thought of asking
an agent to write a whole patch and commit the result.
The way that I've seen it is things like Github Copilot within VScode
where there are inline suggestions. It's kinda like clangd except it
suggests corrections to your mistakes instead of just underlining them
with red squiggles.
Like if you messed up the argument and passed a pointer when it was
supposed to be a pointer to a pointer it will give you a little tooltip
correction. But this is long before you would be ready to actually
commit a patch, heck it's before even testing it (obviously).
The actual committing action would be by running 'git commit'. So I
don't see how these tags could end up in there.
