Artificial intelligence is no longer just a suggestion tool — it has become a true development teammate. Here’s how we integrated Claude Code into our daily workflow.

The Initial Challenge

At Zadig&Voltaire, our tech team manages a complex ecosystem: 47 countries, 15 million monthly visitors, and a stack ranging from legacy Magento to modern headless. Code review was becoming a bottleneck.

The Agent Approach

Rather than using AI sporadically, we opted for an autonomous agent that:

  • Automatically analyzes every Pull Request
  • Identifies problematic patterns
  • Suggests performance optimizations
  • Generates missing documentation
  • Checks consistency with our style guide
// Example of our agent configuration
const codeReviewAgent = {
  triggers: ['pull_request.opened', 'pull_request.synchronize'],
  checks: [
    'security_vulnerabilities',
    'performance_patterns',
    'documentation_coverage',
    'test_coverage'
  ],
  autoFix: ['formatting', 'imports', 'simple_refactors']
};

Results After 3 Months

The numbers speak for themselves:

  • -60% time spent on code review
  • +40% documentation coverage
  • 3x more PRs merged per week
  • 0 security incidents related to code

Limitations Encountered

The agent isn’t perfect. We had to fine-tune its rules to avoid:

  • False positives on intentionally maintained legacy code
  • Overly aggressive refactor suggestions
  • Over-documentation of trivial code

Next Steps

Our next goal: connect the agent to our monitoring system so it can propose optimizations based on real production metrics.
