## Improving Code Quality with **agent.md**

Improving Code Quality with agent.md

agent.md is a small tool that helps large language models write better code. It works as a middle layer between the model and the editor. The agent watches the code that the model generates. It then checks the code for common mistakes. If a problem is found, the agent asks the model to fix it. This loop continues until the code passes the checks.

The agent uses simple rules. It can look for missing imports, unused variables, or mismatched brackets. When a rule is triggered, the agent sends a short prompt to the model. The model returns a corrected snippet. The process is fast and keeps the code clean.

# Example prompt sent by agent.md

Please fix the syntax error in this function:
def add(a, b)
    return a + b

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

The result is a corrected function with the proper colon and indentation. The tool can be added to any development workflow. It works with many languages and editors. More details are available at the original page: https://fabiensanglard.net/agent.md/index.html.
