Sweep
Originally a GitHub-issue-to-PR open-source agent; the team has since pivoted entirely to a JetBrains AI coding assistant. The legacy issue-to-PR product is no longer the active focus.
Description
Sweep launched as a GitHub bot that turned issues into pull requests using an LLM-driven spec-to-PR loop. The team has since shifted: the public README now points readers to a JetBrains AI coding assistant plugin, and the legacy GitHub repository (7.7k stars) is no longer the active product. The new JetBrains product offers tab completion, AI Code Review across branches, and is marketed as enterprise/SOC-2 ready. This composition captures both phases because the legacy product is what the open-source community references as Sweep.
Solution
Legacy: spec-driven loop. Sweep took a GitHub issue as a spec, planned changes, edited files, and opened a PR. Current: an IDE-side completion and edit assistant inside JetBrains IDEs with a custom Tab model and a separate code-review feature.
Primary use cases
- (legacy) GitHub-issue-to-PR automation
