Copilot for developing incremental features in back end or front end

Hey fellow HNers

I am a developer since last 10 years and I have been a regular user of Github Copilot as well as ChatGPT-pro since last 1 year.

I have used ChatGPT to add unit tests for the code that I develop as well as develop some quick scripting to do some adhoc work in software dev.

Similarly, I love using Github Copilot to implement new functions, modify existing functions/classes etc.

However, what I have been missing is the ability to generate the entire change set for a given product requirement. For example, if I have to add a new field in the database as well as in the API, I want to be able to provide the prompt and have the LLM make the necessary code changes.

Are there any such AI tools that can help me do this bit?

TIA
