# Using AI Agents

The ways AI agents work with Shortcut: agents you assign work to, AI coding tools that connect through the MCP server, and AI assistants that read and update your work.

## Overview

Some AI agents join your workspace, so your team can assign them work or @-mention them. Others are AI tools that connect to Shortcut with your access, and find, create, and update work while you use them.

## Agents You Assign Work To

These agents appear in your workspace with their own name and @-handle. Make one an owner of a Story, or @-mention it in a comment, and it starts on the work.

- [Korey](/help/integrations/korey) turns product context into specs and Stories, and hands work off to coding agents.
- [Devin](/help/integrations/devin-ai) is an AI software engineer. Assign it a Story and it plans and writes the code.
- [Shortcut Open Agents](/help/agents/open-agents) are agents your team builds for its own workflows. They're in closed beta.

## AI Coding Tools

These tools connect through the [Shortcut MCP Server](/help/integrations/mcp-server). Once connected, they can read your Stories and Epics for context and create or update work from your editor or terminal.

- [Claude Code](/help/integrations/claude-code)
- [Codex CLI](/help/integrations/codex-cli)
- [Cursor](/help/integrations/cursor)
- [Kiro CLI](/help/integrations/kiro-cli)

## AI Assistants

These assistants connect to Shortcut through OAuth and search, create, and update work from their own apps.

- [ChatPRD](/help/integrations/chatprd) uses your Stories and Epics to draft PRDs, and creates work from chat.
- [Odella AI](/help/integrations/odella-ai) gives its AI Employees access to plan and manage your Stories, Epics, and Iterations.

The [Integrations Directory](/help/integrations/directory) lists every integration.
