Once you get it set up, Emacs is a pretty damn good "agent" multiplexer as well. I use agent-shell with Projectile on Doom Emacs as my main workflow these days, and it works very well even if I have 6 projects open or whatever.

Claude and Codex are also both quite good at working with Emacs as well. Depending on your isolation/sandboxing strategy, they can either run commands against your session via emacsclient (a bit scary) or dump elisp in the REPL for you to evaluate. Both are really efficient in terms of giving you a fast feedback loop.

Please share any useful guides and/or resources for agentic development with Emacs!

If you like scary, there are also emacs based agents like gptel which support tools like "eval-elisp".

A kitchen sink is almost indistinguishable from a sandbox, right?

... right?

Hahahaha. I think for the limited purpose of iterating on elisp code, using gptel or efrit to let an agent run wild and iterate in a live environment could be useful. I'd want to run that in a VM though, and not as my user or with access to personal data beyond reusable parts of my config.
