-Patchwork automates development gruntwork like PR reviews, bug fixing, security patching, and more using a self-hosted CLI agent and your preferred LLMs. Try the hosted version [here](https://app.patched.codes/signin).
+Patchwork automates operational workflows via LLMs.
## Key Components
- **Steps**: Reusable atomic actions like create PR, commit changes or call an LLM.
-- **Prompt Templates**: Customizable LLM prompts optimized for a chore like library updates, code generation, issue analysis or vulnerability remediation.
-- **Patchflows**: LLM-assisted automations such as PR reviews, code fixing, documentation etc. built by combining steps and prompts.

Patchflows can be run locally in your CLI and IDE, or as part of your CI/CD pipeline. There are [several patchflows available](#patchflows) out of the box, and you can always [create your own](#contributing).

-## Patchflows
-
-Patchwork comes with predefined patchflows, with more added over time. Sample patchflows include:
-
-- [**GenerateDocstring**](patchwork/patchflows/GenerateDocstring): Generate docstrings for methods in your code.
-- [**AutoFix**](patchwork/patchflows/AutoFix): Generate and apply fixes to code vulnerabilities in a repository.
-- [**PRReview**](patchwork/patchflows/PRReview): On PR creation, extract code diff, summarize changes, and comment on PR.
-- [**GenerateREADME**](patchwork/patchflows/GenerateREADME): Create a README markdown file for a given folder, to add documentation to your repository.
-- [**DependencyUpgrade**](patchwork/patchflows/DependencyUpgrade): Update your dependencies from vulnerable to fixed versions.
-- [**ResolveIssue**](patchwork/patchflows/ResolveIssue): Identify the files in your repository that need to be updated to resolve an issue (or bug) and create a PR to fix it.

## Prompt Templates
Prompt templates are used by patchflows and passed as queries to LLMs. Templates contain prompts with placeholder variables enclosed by `{{}}` which are replaced by the data from the steps or inputs on every run.
