Introducing Korey Coding Agent Handoff: A Continuous Workflow From Idea to PR
December 10, 2025 by Kurt Schrader
Teams don’t get slowed down by implementation. They get slowed down by everything that happens around it.
Before a single line of code gets written, someone has to write the spec. Before the spec, someone has to gather context from Slack, a Figma file, a customer complaint, or a meeting that happened two weeks ago. Then that context has to be translated into something a coding agent can actually use. By the time implementation starts, the original idea has been paraphrased three times and half the nuance is gone.
That’s the problem Korey Coding Agent Handoff is built to solve.
From context to code, without the gaps
Korey now supports a continuous workflow that takes you from raw input — a screenshot, a bug report, a Slack message, a rough idea — all the way to an implementation-ready spec that hands off directly to your coding agent.
Here’s what the flow looks like in practice:
-
Capture context — Drop in whatever you’re working from. A customer support ticket. A screenshot of broken UI. A voice note from a standup. Korey reads it and understands it.
-
Generate the spec — Korey produces a structured specification: problem statement, proposed solution, acceptance criteria, edge cases, and dependencies. Everything a coding agent needs to get started without asking follow-up questions.
-
Hand off to your agent — With one action, the spec goes to Cursor, Devin, Jules, or whichever coding agent your team uses. Korey passes along the full context, not just the summary.
-
Track back to your project — The resulting work item links back to GitHub Issues or Shortcut, so nothing gets lost between planning and delivery.
Why this matters
Coding agents are only as good as the context you give them. A vague prompt produces a vague implementation. A spec that’s missing edge cases produces code that breaks on edge cases.
Korey’s handoff is designed to close that gap. The specifications it generates are grounded in the original context — not a paraphrase of a paraphrase. When the coding agent starts work, it’s working from the same understanding you had when you first described the problem.
Teams using the handoff workflow report seeing implementation-ready pull requests within minutes of capturing an idea. The back-and-forth that used to happen between PM, engineering, and the agent shrinks significantly because the spec is clear from the start.
Keeping specs aligned through the cycle
One of the harder problems in software development is context drift — the spec says one thing, the implementation does something slightly different, and by the time anyone notices, you’re two sprints deep.
Korey addresses this by staying connected to both sides. As implementation progresses, Korey can reference the original spec to flag divergence, surface blockers, and keep status current in your project management tool — without anyone having to manually update it.
Get started
If you’re already using Korey, Coding Agent Handoff is available now. Start with any existing context — a ticket, a message, a rough idea — and let Korey take it from there.
