An agent that goes away and comes back with a PR.
Jules clones your repository into a cloud VM\, works the task asynchronously — reading\, editing\, running tests — and returns a pull request with a plan and diff for review.
Asynchronous is the operative word: you hand off a task and carry on rather than supervising each step. That suits well-defined backlog work like dependency bumps and test coverage. Access runs through Google's AI subscription tiers.
