Code Assistant

An AI coding assistant built in Rust that provides both command-line and graphical interfaces for autonomous code analysis and modification.

Key Features

Multi-Modal Tool Execution: Adapts to different LLM capabilities with pluggable tool invocation modes - native function calling, XML-style tags, and triple-caret blocks - ensuring compatibility across various AI providers.

Real-Time Streaming Interface: Advanced streaming processors parse and display tool invocations as they stream from the LLM, with smart filtering to prevent unsafe tool combinations.

Session-Based Project Management: Each chat session is tied to a specific project and maintains persistent state, working memory, and draft messages with attachment support.

Multiple Interface Options: Choose between a modern GUI built on Zed's GPUI framework, traditional terminal interface, or headless MCP server mode for integration with MCP clients such as Claude Desktop.

Agent Client Protocol (ACP) Support: Full compatibility with the Agent Client Protocol standard, enabling seamless integration with ACP-compatible editors like Zed. See Zed's documentation on adding custom agents for setup instructions.

Session Compaction: Before running out of context space, the agent generates a session summary and continues work.

Auto-Loaded Repository Guidance: Automatically includes AGENTS.md (or CLAUDE.md fallback) from the project root in the assistant's system context to align behavior with repo-specific instructions.
