Open Source AI Coding CLI

Your AI thinks.
Remembers. Acts.

A terminal-first AI coding agent you install via npm and run locally. Three modes, 22 tools, and spiral memory that remembers your entire project across every session.

Requires Node.js 18+

Open SourceAGPL-3.0Works with any LLM

One CLI, Three Modes

One CLI. Three superpowers.

Install with npm, type `hx` in your terminal. Switch between modes or run them simultaneously. All powered by the same spiral memory.

Mode 01

Your AI coding partner in the terminal.

Type `hx` in your project and start talking. The agent reads your files, writes code, runs tests, searches your codebase, and commits changes โ€” all with 22 built-in tools. Spiral memory means it already knows your project from the last session. No re-explaining.

Autonomous AI that works while you don't.

Jarvis runs background tasks in your terminal โ€” planning, analyzing, and executing from a task queue. It cycles through quick checks to deep reasoning and proposes changes that require your approval. Think of it as a tireless junior dev that never sleeps.

24/7 security scanner for your code.

The monitor runs in the background scanning for hardcoded secrets, SQL injection, XSS, missing CSRF tokens, and outdated dependencies. Findings are ranked by severity and appear in real-time. Choose passive (alerts only), defensive, or active mode.
