What is Autofix via Agentic PRs?
The tool opens its own pull request containing a fix, rather than suggesting an edit inside yours.
This goes a step beyond inline suggestions: the tool branches, edits, sometimes runs your tests, and raises a pull request for review. It suits work that spans multiple files or arrives on a schedule, like dependency upgrades.
The operational question is volume. An agent that opens a pull request per finding will bury your review queue, so batching, scheduling and scoping controls matter more than the fix quality itself.
