## What it is

An open source coding agent, used in the terminal and in a beta desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux.

## What it’s for

An open alternative for anyone who wants a coding agent with separate build and plan modes.

## Benefits

- A build agent with full access and a read-only plan agent, switched with the Tab key
- A general subagent for searches and multi-step tasks, called with @general
- Install via script, npm, Homebrew, pacman, mise and Nix

## Caveats

- MIT license; the repository does not mention pricing
- Performance and cost claims made in the video were not validated
