An open source persistent agent that handles my boring dev chores

Metabase is a well-known open-source business intelligence (BI) tool that lets non-technical users query databases and build dashboards via a simple GUI, without writing SQL. This blog post describes a project by its team: a "persistent agent" — an automated assistant that runs continuously (not just on demand) to handle routine development tasks. The key ideas are: 1) It's open-source, so anyone can inspect or modify it. 2) It uses an LLM (large language model) to understand natural-language instructions and act on them. 3) "Persistent" means it keeps running in the background, monitoring for new tasks (e.g., from a chat channel or GitHub issues) rather than requiring a user to prompt it each time. The post likely discusses how such an agent can automate chores like code review, dependency updates, or triaging bugs.
