ClaudeLike: How to Apply a Tool-Based Agent to Patch Generation

Claude Code is an LLM agent specialized in general-purpose programming tasks and remains one of the most powerful LLM agents to date. Inspired by Claude Code’s strategy, we developed ClaudeLike, an agent dedicated to patch generation. In this post, we introduce the motivation and key features behind the development of ClaudeLike. Motivation: Applying a SOTA LLM Agent to Patch Generation Why Did We Need to Develop a New Agent? When Claude Code was released, we experimented to see whether it could generate patches effectively, as we had previously done with tools like Aider and SWE-Agent. We found that Claude Code performed reasonably well when provided with contextual information such as crash logs. However, we determined that directly integrating Claude Code into Crete would be difficult.
