How it works for
engineering teams

Workstream-driven

Breaks big goals into sequenced, observable actions.

Autonomous & results-driven

Handles complex tasks without prompt engineering.

Output: merge-ready pull requests

Finished, checked, merge-ready code — not suggestions.

Lineai acts like a team of developers

Lineai autonomously plans and executes library and framework upgrades end-to-end. It is results-driven, observable, and built for complex, multi-step work.

A detailed map of the codebase

Profiles & diagnoses

Core app structure, impact information and cyclomatic complexity.

Built from multiple sources

Bytecode / IL / source decomposition, runtime inspection and DB / data-model scanning.

Extensible

Lineai annotations, pipeline integration and continuous capture.

Informs the AI

Gives the director the dependency and relationship data it needs to act safely.

An AI Director that plans and executes

AI Director

Performs in-depth analysis, then plans and executes workstreams.

Coding AI & MCP

The foundation of automated coding; also supports interactive IDE scenarios.

Event-driven loop

Ties into the build system and tooling to drive work as an automated workload.

No prompt engineering

The Director writes the tickets and prompts — checking output against graph + build feedback.

Stop tech debt from ever accruing

Lineai wires the Directed-AI loop into a pipeline-integrated automation pattern — driven by dependency-change notifications, so updates happen continuously and automatically.

1

Notification

Dependent component change detected.

2

Update graph

Re-profile impact across the codebase.

3

Directed AI

Director identifies the changes and plans the workstream.

4

Coding AI

Coding AI writes and checks the change.

5

Updated code

Merge-ready pull request, lights-out.

Let AI continuously do most — or all — of this mundane work. Lights-out with no prompt engineering.

It recovers when things go wrong

Lineai doesn't just attempt the change — it reads build failures, diagnoses the cause and iterates until the work passes and a clean pull / merge request is ready.

  1. Reads build & migration failures.
  2. Plans and applies the fix autonomously.
  3. Re-checks against graph + build feedback.
  4. Iterates to a merge-ready PR — reviewed & approved.

⚠ Build failed after AI implementation. Claude created a diagnostic log.

Checked locations: output/build-failure.log, work/build-failure.log

Build Failure Log

Command attempted: mvn clean compile -DskipTests
Exit code: 127 (command not found)

Failure cause:

  • Java 17 is not available in the build environment
  • Maven is not available in the build environment
  • Cannot proceed with compilation without proper Java/Maven toolchain

Migration Work Completed:

  1. Updated Spring Boot parent version from 2.7.11 to 3.5.6 in pom.xml
  2. Updated Java compiler version from 11 to 17 in pom.xml (required for Spring Boot 3.x)
  3. Migrated Jakarta EE namespace imports:
    • javax.annotation.Nullablejakarta.annotation.Nullable
    • javax.annotation.concurrent.Immutablejakarta.annotation.concurrent.Immutable
    • javax.annotation.PostConstructjakarta.annotation.PostConstruct
    • javax.annotation.Nonnulljakarta.annotation.Nonnull
