Asking Questions

Azent can answer questions about your codebase directly in Azure DevOps comments. Use this for code explanations, architecture questions, or to understand how a feature works.

How to trigger

Add a comment with your question in any work item or pull request:

@Azent how does the authentication middleware work?
@Azent what would be the impact of changing the database schema for orders?
@Azent explain the data flow in this pull request

What the agent does

  1. Reads the question and any surrounding context (work item, PR)
  2. Clones the repository and explores the relevant code
  3. Formulates a clear, detailed answer
  4. Posts the answer as a reply comment in Azure DevOps

Note: Asking questions does not create branches or pull requests — the agent only responds with a comment.
