🚀 Quick Start with Mission Control

Mission Control is your web interface for running and managing AI agents. Get started in minutes with pre-built workflows for security scanning, GitHub management, analytics insights, and more.
Mission Control is in beta. Please share any feedback with us in GitHub discussions.
Use Mission Control to kick off agents for:
  • Bug fixes & code quality - Address nitpicks and technical debt
  • Feature development - Build boilerplate-heavy features
  • Security & compliance - Automated vulnerability scanning
  • Investigation & analysis - Research issues to kickstart your work
  • Custom workflows - Run repeatable tasks with your own rules and prompts

Quick Start

1

Access Mission Control

Go to hub.continue.dev/agents and connect with your GitHub account.Mission Control Setup
2

Choose an Agent

Select from pre-configured agents or create your own:

Security Scanner

continuedev/snyk-continuous-ai-agent Finds vulnerabilities and creates fix PRs

GitHub Manager

continuedev/github-project-manager-agent
Triages issues and manages workflows
3

Run Your First Agent

Enter a prompt and watch your agent work:
"Fix the TypeError in api/users.ts and open a PR with tests"
New to agents? Check out our pre-configured agents to test out a workflow immediately.

Example Workflow Tasks

Here are some example tasks you can try with your agents:
  • “Fix the TypeError in api/users.ts where the user object might be undefined”
  • “Add null checks to all database query results in the services/ directory”
  • “Fix all ESLint warnings in the components folder and open a PR”
  • “Update deprecated React lifecycle methods to hooks in legacy components”
  • “Create a new REST endpoint for user profile updates with validation and error handling”
  • “Add pagination to the products list page with previous/next buttons”
  • “Implement dark mode toggle using Tailwind CSS classes across all pages”
  • “Add unit tests for the authentication service using Jest”
  • “Run a complete security scan and create GitHub issues for critical vulnerabilities”
  • “Scan the codebase for hardcoded API keys and move them to environment variables”
  • “Add input sanitization to all user-facing form fields”
  • “Update npm packages with security vulnerabilities and test compatibility”
  • “Add JSDoc comments to all exported functions in the utils/ directory”
  • “Create a README.md for the new payment-processing module with setup instructions”
  • “Generate TypeScript interfaces for all API response schemas”
  • “Add error handling boilerplate to all async functions missing try-catch blocks”
  • “Investigate why the login API is returning 500 errors intermittently and suggest fixes”
  • “Analyze the performance bottleneck in the data processing pipeline”
  • “Review the database schema for the orders table and suggest optimizations”
  • “Find all TODO comments related to authentication and create a summary”
  • “Extract the repeated validation logic in controllers into a shared utility function”
  • “Convert all class components in src/legacy to functional components with hooks”
  • “Rename all instances of ‘userId’ to ‘accountId’ across the codebase”
  • “Split the 500-line UserService.ts into smaller, single-responsibility services”

Best Practices for Success

The practice of using agents (Continuous AI) requires thoughtful setup of guardrails and habits:

Start Small

Begin with tasks you’re confident Continue can handle, like fixing known bugs with simple solutions.

Practice Locally

Test with Continue CLI in TUI mode before deploying automation.

Be Thorough

Agents can run for extended periods - invest time in detailed prompts with all important context.

Team Alignment

Discuss agent usage and adjust code review habits for higher PR volumes.
