Symphony workflow automation tool works with Claude Code
Symphony workflow automation with Claude Code
A developer successfully implemented the Symphony specification using Claude Code, creating an automated workflow that handles tickets from issue tracking through to pull requests.
How the workflow works
The Symphony tool follows this sequence:
- Raise a ticket in Linear (can be swapped for JIRA or GitHub Issues)
- Move the ticket from backlog to TODO
- Symphony picks up the ticket, checks out a branch, codes the work, and creates a PR
- You review and merge
- Symphony GUI shows status as the job runs
Implementation details
The developer used Node and TypeScript for the initial implementation but noted: "I quickly realized why OpenAI reference implementation used Elixir. This needs a language like Elixir." They plan to switch to Elixir, seeing it as "a good excuse to learn."
Setup requirements
Key setup considerations:
- You need to set up API keys and token billing for this to work
- This does not use your Claude Code Max or Pro subscription (or the developer didn't find a way to make it work)
- This billing setup might be a reason not to use it liberally
Tool preferences
The developer prefers GitHub Issues over other issue tracking systems, stating: "I will probably use Github issues (not keen on another issue tracking system)."
