Before you start
You need a pre.dev account and available credits. To work on existing code, have access to the GitHub repository you want to import.Build your first change
1
Create a project
Sign in at pre.dev and describe what you want to build, or import a GitHub repository.
2
Let the agent choose the approach
The agent chooses the next step itself: it can build a small change directly or plan a larger one first. To work on the requirements and architecture first, ask for a plan in your message.For an existing app, include the expected behavior, the current problem, and any files or constraints you already know.
3
Connect what the project needs
Open
/integrations for Project setup. Choose the relevant connection account, enable skills or MCP servers, and fill required values under API Keys. AI, payments, and sign-in are already built in. Use environment variables for other secrets and configuration.4
Build a concrete change
Ask the agent to implement the first useful piece. For a dedicated sprint, use:A useful result lets you combine both filters, shows only matching issues, and explains when no issues match. Include these criteria in your request so you can check them in the preview.Follow the active session and its progress. Additional web sessions may require a connected GitHub repository.
5
Review and ship
Inspect the code changes, the verification result, and the preview. Test your acceptance criteria, then request any corrections. When the app is ready, choose Publish in the header to put it at its permanent address.For code in GitHub, the session’s Merge into Main action can create a pull request and merge it automatically when clean. Use a review-first request if you want a PR left open.
