Why it matters

Small, repetitive tasks eat more of the week than anyone likes to admit. Cases like this show an agent taking a chore off someone's plate end to end, not just suggesting what to do. It is one of 196 sightings filed under Productivity on Agent Sightings (number 181 by interest), and one of 24 involving Replit Agent.

Help me ship a first iOS app to the App Store. Break it into steps, show your work, and wait for confirmation before anything irreversible, paid, or outbound.

Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
