How SeeCodes Works

Bridge Jira planning and IDE execution without changing your workflow.

Implementing SeeCodes into your daily workflow is effortless and natural. The product fits between planning and execution without asking teams to abandon Jira or their editor.

A six-step workflow that feels native to the tools you already use

SeeCodes moves context from planning to implementation and then returns structured progress back to Jira.
01

Jira

Plan

Product owners, Scrum Masters, and leads groom the backlog in Jira as usual.

Descriptions, mockups, acceptance criteria, and attachments stay on the Jira issue where the team already plans the work.

02

Jira → IDE

Assign & Connect

A developer picks up the ticket and clicks "Generate VS Code Task Link" on the Jira issue.

VS Code or Cursor opens the task and pulls in the full context without copy-pasting or manual context rebuilding.

03

IDE

Execute

Inside the IDE, SeeCodes selects relevant files automatically or lets the developer curate the context.

The AI Implementation Assistant can then execute changes across multiple files to solve the Jira task.

04

Background

Track & Safeguard

As the AI edits files, SeeCodes captures local, lightweight snapshots of the workspace.

Developers can review diffs, accept or reject specific hunks, and revert AI hallucinations without affecting Git history.

05

Automated

Sync

Every hour, or via a manual trigger, SeeCodes analyzes local diffs and syncs progress back to Jira.

The Jira issue is updated with empirical signals such as what is ready, what is left, risks, and progress percentage.

06

Jira

Review

During standup, the Scrum Master opens the Daily tab in Jira for an AI-generated summary.

The summary is driven by real codebase activity instead of vague verbal updates, improving project clarity across the team.

Safeguards are built into the flow, not bolted on afterward

The product is designed to keep developers in control while preserving team visibility.

Local history & review controls

SeeCodes creates local snapshots as the AI works so developers can compare changes, review diffs, and revert bad edits quickly.

Manual or automatic sync

Teams can let progress sync every hour or switch to manual control when reviews or change management policies require tighter approval gates.

Privacy note

SeeCodes only looks at code diffs. It does not monitor keystrokes, mouse movement, screen activity, or active window times.

What gets synced back to Jira

The goal is structured, empirical progress reporting instead of status theater.

Synced task fields

  • What's ready
  • What's left
  • Risk flags
  • Progress percentage and confidence level

Daily review

During daily standup, the Scrum Master can open the Daily tab in Jira and generate a Markdown summary from real task and codebase activity.
