Distributable agent software factory that takes a task queue to verified, reviewed pull requests.

## Overview

SMILE is a distributable, verified agent software factory. It takes tasks from a queue and carries them through to reviewed pull requests, using a graph, an execution loop, a watcher and a planning step.

The whole project is public on GitHub as a solo effort by David Chen. The repository shows no license, so reuse rights are unclear. There is no hosted version or paid plan.

## Features

* Moves work from a task queue to reviewed pull requests.
* Combines a graph, a loop, a watcher and planning components.
* Verifies agent output.
