Factory Introduces 'Droid 1.0' to Power Autonomous Agents Across Massive Codebases
Factory introduced Droid 1.0, the revamped execution engine powering its software engineering agents across large multi-repo codebases and terminal workflows.
Programmatic Tool Batching: Slashing Token Overhead by Eliminating Single-File Round-Trips
By batching tool invocations programmatically instead of burning round-trip turns on every single file read or grep, Droid 1.0 slashes token overhead while improving multi-file patch accuracy.
Wiring Unit Tests and Linters Into Droid's Pre-PR Verification Loop
Connect repository test runners and CI linters directly to Droid's verification loop so every generated patch is validated before opening a PR.
