Bringing AI Expert Agents Directly onto Developers' Workstations
(NANJING, China – September 24, 2026) – AutoCore today announced AutoForge Desktop, the desktop edition of its AI-native software engineering platform. Opening a new delivery form beyond cloud SaaS, AutoForge Desktop puts the platform’s proven AI expert agents directly onto engineers’ local workstations — deep inside their real environments and working directories — where they become an always-on digital employee at every engineer’s side.
For too long, a pane of glass has stood between AI tools and real engineering: they can see code snippets but never the whole project, and offer generic advice without ever touching the runtime. AutoForge Desktop breaks through that barrier. Every expert agent from the SaaS platform is available on the desktop with no migration — and is more capable for it, because the agent now works inside the local working directory: reading the actual source code, understanding project structure, dependencies, and configuration, and basing every step of analysis and action on the full, real state of the project rather than secondhand descriptions.
All of this is built on AutoForge’s multi-agent technology and its unified engineering model: locally, domain expert agents — covering requirements, architecture, functional safety, cybersecurity, and more — collaborate in parallel around a single, dynamic, continuously consistent model of the system. Requirement documents and design specifications no longer need to be maintained by hand; they are consistent, always-current projections of that model from different viewpoints.
On the software development side, AutoForge Desktop takes on the day-to-day work directly. Describe a requirement in one sentence, and the agent locates the relevant code, writes the change, runs its own tests, and prepares the change notes. Paste in an error log, and it traces the root cause, fixes the defect, and gets the tests passing again. Hand it legacy code, and it explains the logic, fills in the missing test coverage, and carries out the refactoring — reviewing line by line and flagging risks along the way. The engineer’s role shifts from writing every line to defining the task and accepting the result.
Going a step further, AutoForge Desktop connects directly to code runtime environments and units under test, integrates with leading automotive development tools such as CANoe and Simulink, and spans the complete workflow from system design through development to test. Code delivered by an agent is no longer merely "looks right": the agent runs it, debugs it, executes the tests, and analyzes the results on its own, iterating against real feedback — moving from offering suggestions to genuinely owning the task. This is what makes AI a true 24/7 digital employee.
"The value of AI is not in the conversation — it’s in the delivery," said AutoForge’s product lead. "AutoForge Desktop takes agents out of the chat window and puts them next to the engineer: they see the real code, connect to the real runtime, and deliver complete tasks. With the live engineering environment as their single source of truth, this always-on digital workforce turns high-quality, safety-critical software engineering into a repeatable, scalable, everyday capability."
