by Augment Code

cliactivesubscription

Augment Code's terminal agent for interactive and automated workflows, with codebase indexing, edits, PR/build feedback, MCP server mode, ACP integration, and script-friendly output.

Auggie CLI is Augment Code's terminal agent for interactive and automated coding workflows. It brings Augment's codebase-context story to command-line tasks such as code analysis, edits, PR/build feedback, and issue or alert triage.

Key capabilities

Interactive terminal agent - Run auggie to work with a codebase from the terminal.

Automation mode - Script-friendly flags include --print, --quiet, compact output, JSON output, stdin/file input, and queued sequential tasks.

MCP and ACP - auggie --mcp can expose Auggie as an MCP tool server, while --acp supports editor/client integration.

Custom commands - Uses .augment/commands and supports compatibility with Claude Code command directories.

Autonomy level

Level 3 (supervised agent): useful for local codebase work and automation, with enterprise gating possible for some non-interactive features.

Strengths

  • Strong codebase-context positioning from Augment
  • MCP server mode and ACP integration are useful orchestration surfaces
  • Script-friendly output modes make it more than an interactive chat CLI

Limitations

  • Non-interactive mode may require an enterprise agreement
  • Transcript storage and permission model still need empirical DevThrottle testing
