Title:
Tidra: AI Coding Agents for Automated Software Maintenance at Enterprise Scale
Agreement Number:
1043956
Agreement Value:
$250,000.00
Agreement Date:
Apr 6, 2026 - Nov 30, 2026
Description:
This project develops AI-powered automation for large-scale software maintenance across enterprise organizations to reduce time spent on repetitive maintenance tasks, including dependency updates, security patches, configuration standardization, that must be coordinated across hundreds of repositories. Our system uses LLMs to automatically generate code changes, create pull requests, and orchestrate completion across entire codebases. We will advance the system's intelligence through: pre-computed codebase representations that provide rich context without repeated analysis; pre-generation analysis to optimize cost and approach; organizational knowledge integration ; and automated CI validation to achieve enterprise-grade reliability.
