## What the story says

Factory builds Droids, software development agents, and syncs code repositories to Chroma Cloud so the agents can search and navigate codebases using semantic, regex and full-text search. It uses collection forking to index only the changes for each commit or branch.

> Droids need context on existing code to do their work, and to solve that, Factory syncs code repositories to Chroma Cloud so agents can search and navigate them.
