The application work, done and queued for one look
Hand a companion the outcome. It reads the Codemagic applications, does the 3-operation version of the job, and stops for your click on anything that changes a record.
Open the application. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Codemagic afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a application until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Codemagic exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 3 operations, 1 read and 2 writes. In practice that means it can create a variable and create an application, and work across the applications and variables.
The Codemagic API stops at Codemagic. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
What does it already know about your variables?
1 of the 3 operations is a read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can list applications, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Codemagic's documentation.
The applications are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the variables. A companion can hold all 3 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Codemagic admin becomes a queue you review.
- List Applications
Who signs off on a new variable?
All 2 write operations wait for you.
A companion can create a variable and create an application, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the application, the field and the new value before it lands in Codemagic.
Nothing in Codemagic is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the application exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Create Variable
- Create Application
Can it list applications every morning by itself?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Codemagic applications pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The product and engineering playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the site work, the Codemagic applications sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
