How a Bot uses Bart
20 Bart tools. Connect under Plugins. The Bot still asks before anything leaves the thread.
- Read the Bart project you name. Reproduce, summarize, or draft a patch.
- Never merge, deploy, or change production without approval.
- End with steps, expected vs actual, and a minimal fixture when it can.
Never without you
- Merge, deploy, or delete a repo
- Change production config

FAQ
Does Whip Computer have a native Bart integration?
Yes. Connect Bart under Plugins. The Bot still asks before anything leaves the thread — sending engineering included.
Can a Bot change live Bart data?
Not by default. Whip Computer is talk-first: draft in the thread, grant access when it hits a wall. Live Bart writes wait for you.
Do I need a workflow builder?
No. Create a Bot, message it, grant access as needed. There isn't anything to learn — it's like bringing on a coworker.
