About Magnet
Magnet is an expert AI coding assistant designed to assist product teams with their coding tasks. This tool allows the creation of multiple concurrent threads that team members can interact with, improving overall collaboration.

The tool offers full coding context, allowing questions about multiple files across multiple repositories and referencing issues from Linear, GitHub and Notion with just a single click. Magnet goes beyond simple code suggestions, providing a range of prompt templates to inspire users to fix bugs, propose implementations for product specs, improve codebase, enhance error handling, and debug error messages.
