Open sourcePrivate, offline AI coding agent for local Qwen models via Ollama with zero dependencies and real tools.
17Apache-2.0
Private, offline AI coding agent for local Qwen models via Ollama — zero dependencies, real tools, multi-agent. Your code never leaves your machine.
Pros
- +Truly private and offline: no cloud, no API keys, no data leaves your machine
- +Zero dependencies and no build step: pure TypeScript run directly by Node
- +Real agent capabilities: file tools, command execution, multi-agent delegation, long-term memory
- +Safe by default with permission gates and workspace confinement
Cons
- −Requires local Ollama setup and a Qwen model, which may be resource-intensive
- −Limited to Qwen models via Ollama, not model-agnostic
- −Primarily a CLI tool, may lack GUI for less technical users
Target audience: Developers seeking a private, air-gapped AI coding agent that runs on local models, especially those prioritizing data privacy and avoiding cloud AI costs.
