Documentation
📜 Personal AI assistant/agent in your terminal, with tools so it can:
Use the terminal, run code, edit files, browse the web, use vision, and much more;
a great coding agent, but is general-purpose to assists in all kinds of knowledge-work, from a simple but powerful CLI.
An unconstrained local alternative to: ChatGPT with "Code Interpreter", Cursor Agent, etc.
Not limited by lack of software, internet access, timeouts, or privacy concerns (if using local models).
