An open-source AI coding agent for the terminal. It remembers you and your projects, so you don't have to explain yourself twice.

Inspect the runtime in motion
Each view follows a concrete runtime surface from the terminal client.
Explicit lifecycle
Follow a real task to its explanation, with format and lint running automatically after each edit. Every tool call appears as it happens, not as a summary afterwards.

Observable trace
A completed task becomes an ordered record of tool calls, model calls, durations, and tokens. It is written locally while the work runs, so you can read back what happened.
