This is awesome. Somewhat echoing the other feedback here, I'm a little concerned about the "self test" side of things, and would much rather sweep wrote tests. Given my experience with ChatGPT and copilot though, I feel reassured that it would write tests for me. If it wrote tests by default (or used a heuristic on when to write tests), I would find it impossible to not use this I think.

Great job.

Thanks for the suggestion, we’re actually going to spend the weekend hacking at a user configurable step that handles different types of tests.

I’m personally a fan of letting users insert their own instructions per repository, and Sweep can use that for each PR.

Yeah, a `sweep.yml` file (or whatever you guys choose) would be ideal. I'm not put off by having to add a tag to the issue, or asking sweep directly to write a test for me.

We have that! You can directly append to our system prompt here to customize Sweep https://github.com/sweepai/sweep/blob/main/sweep.yaml
