Find and fix bugs in my code overnight

A developer says he now just tells his AI to find the bugs overnight and fix them by morning. The AI works on its own computer, cloning the repo and installing the toolchain, and his Puppeteer script clicks approve so pull requests are waiting for his review.

How it works

  1. Tell the AI to find the bugs overnight
  2. It clones the repo on its own computer and installs the toolchain
  3. Audits code and writes fixes
  4. His Puppeteer script clicks approve
  5. Pull requests wait for his morning review

Why it’s worth knowing

He automated the approval clicks too, so the loop runs from instruction to review-ready PRs while he sleeps.
