aider-chat
An open-source AI pair programming CLI that works in any terminal, makes git-committed edits across multiple files, and supports over 100 LLM providers.
Amazon Web Services
AWS's agentic coding CLI that integrates with the terminal, understands AWS services deeply, and can plan and execute multi-step coding tasks using the Amazon Q model.
Sourcegraph
Sourcegraph's agentic coding tool that combines a terminal CLI and VS Code extension with deep codebase search, giving the model precise context retrieval across large repositories.
StackBlitz
StackBlitz's browser-based agentic development environment using WebContainers to generate, run, and deploy full-stack applications entirely in the browser with no local installation required.
Anthropic
A terminal-based agentic coding tool that runs in the developer's own environment, giving Claude read/write access to the file system, shell, and browser to complete coding tasks end to end.
Codebuff (YC)
A Y Combinator-backed multi-agent CLI coding tool with a free tier (Freebuff), using specialised agents for file picking, planning, editing, and reviewing to autonomously modify codebases.
CodeRabbit
An automated code review agent that triggers on every pull request, generating plain-English walkthroughs, sequence diagrams, and line-level bug and security findings across GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and Bitbucket.
OpenAI
OpenAI's open-source agentic coding CLI that runs in the developer's terminal with sandboxed code execution, giving GPT and o-series models access to files and shell commands.
Charmbracelet
A Go-based TUI terminal coding agent from the makers of Glow and Bubble Tea, with LSP integration, MCP server support, session management, and a --yolo mode for fully autonomous operation.
Cognition AI
An autonomous AI software engineer that accepts a task, spins up its own sandboxed environment, and works end-to-end on coding tasks with minimal human checkpointing.
Factory
An enterprise autonomous coding platform where specialised AI Droids handle the complete software development lifecycle — feature development, code review, incident response, migrations, and documentation — integrated with GitHub, Jira, Slack, and PagerDuty.
TailCallHQ
A terminal-based AI pair programmer with a three-agent architecture — implement, research, and plan — supporting 300+ models and offering interactive TUI, one-shot CLI, and shell plugin modes.
Google's open-source agentic coding CLI that runs Gemini models in the developer's terminal, with a 1M-token context window and MCP tool support.
GitHub (Microsoft)
A GitHub Copilot feature that translates natural-language descriptions into shell commands, explains what a command does, and suggests corrections — a command-helper, not a coding agent.
GitHub (Microsoft)
GitHub's cloud-based autonomous coding agent that accepts an assigned GitHub issue, researches the repository, writes code on a branch, runs tests via GitHub Actions, and opens a draft pull request — with no developer involvement during execution.
Block
Block's open-source agentic developer tool that runs locally, supports any LLM provider, and extends its capabilities through a rich MCP and custom-extension ecosystem.
Open source (ErikBjare)
One of the earliest open-source terminal coding agents (Spring 2023), combining code execution, file editing, web browsing via Playwright, and shell access in a persistent conversation interface.
Greptile
An AI code review platform that indexes the entire codebase into a call-graph and deploys a swarm of parallel agents per pull request, catching cross-file dependency issues that diff-only reviewers miss.
Google's cloud-based autonomous coding agent that accepts a GitHub issue, creates a plan, executes it in an isolated Google Cloud VM powered by Gemini 2.5 Pro, and opens a pull request — entirely without developer involvement.
Letta AI
A memory-first terminal coding agent from the creators of MemGPT that accumulates knowledge about your codebase across sessions, ranked first among model-agnostic open-source agents on Terminal-Bench at launch.
Lovable
A browser-based AI full-stack app builder that generates, iterates on, and deploys React/TypeScript applications from natural-language prompts, with GitHub integration, Supabase backend, and an autonomous Agent Mode.
Princeton NLP / Stanford
A radically minimal autonomous software engineering agent — approximately 100 lines of core Python — that scores above 74% on SWE-bench Verified using only bash commands in a sandboxed environment.
Mistral AI
Mistral AI's open-source terminal coding agent powered by Devstral 2, with file editing, shell execution, and a cloud execution mode that lets sessions run remotely when the local machine is off.
Open Interpreter
An open-source terminal interface that lets language models run code locally, giving them access to your file system, browser, and any application on your computer.
SST
An open-source terminal-based agentic coding tool from the SST team, designed for multi-provider LLM support and a keyboard-driven TUI workflow.
All Hands AI
An open-source autonomous software agent (formerly OpenDevin) that executes multi-step engineering tasks inside a sandboxed Docker container, from issue to pull request.
Earendil Works
A minimalist open-source terminal coding agent that runs across 15+ LLM providers, with a TypeScript-based Skills system for extensibility and session branching for non-destructive exploration.
Plandex AI
An open-source terminal coding agent designed for large, multi-file development tasks with a cumulative diff sandbox that stages all AI-proposed changes for human review before applying them.
Potpie AI
An open-source agentic platform that converts a codebase into a knowledge graph and runs specialised agents — debugging, code generation, test planning, and code review — with full structural understanding of the repository.
Alibaba (QwenLM)
Alibaba's open-source agentic CLI coding tool, forked from Gemini CLI and optimised for Qwen3-Coder models, with full support for other major providers and VS Code and Zed integrations.
