An agent being tasked to resolve simple issues from a compiler/test suite/linter/etc is pretty typical use case. It's not clear in this example if the linter was capable of auto fixing the problem, so ordinarily this would be a case where you'd hope an LLM would shine given specific, accurate context and known solution.

I want the bot to do the drudge work, not me. I want the bot to fix lint errors the linter can't safely autofix, not me.

You're talking about designing a kitchen where robots do the cooking and humans do ingredient prep and dishwashing. We prefer kitchens where we do the cooking and use tools or machines to prep and wash dishes.

I don't want it to be an "architect" or "designer". I want it to write the annoying boilerplate. I don't want it to do the coding and me to do the debugging, I want to code while it debugs. Anything else and you are the bot's assistant, not vice-versa.
