Instant Software Factory
[](marvin-instant-agents.mp4)
[Watch with sound](marvin-instant-agents.mp4).
Add an autonomous software factory that keeps improving your project. You need two ingredients:
- A GitHub repo with Actions capacity and enforceable branch protection. Public repos can use a free plan; private repos need Pro for a personal account or Team/Enterprise for an organization.
- A scheduler: this bootstrap uses Claude Code routines, available on Claude Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans.
This repository contains the prompt to set it up through Claude Code using cloud routines. [BOOTSTRAP.md](BOOTSTRAP.md) defines the agents' responsibilities and operating limits. The setup agent chooses the process, models, and schedules to fit your project.
Get started
Open Claude Code in the repository you want the factory to work on and paste:
Set up an Instant Software Factory on this repo: clone https://github.com/mikolalysenko/instant-factory into a temp folder and follow its BOOTSTRAP.md
For a local setup session in an isolated environment, you can optionally launch `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions` to skip permission prompts. The flag is not required by this bootstrap and does not configure the cloud routines' permissions. See [Claude's permission guidance](https://claude.com/resources/articles/auto-mode).
The bootstrap inspects your repository, CI, branch protection, credentials in history, and GitHub access before asking questions. It installs `gh` if needed and asks you to run `! gh auth login` if local authentication is missing; cloud access is checked separately. Missing CI gets a minimal workflow using the project's actual validation commands. Existing failures are recorded, and existing work
