A Rust-based coding assistant that exposes file operations, code analysis, and autonomous modifications through MCP. Connects to multiple LLM providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Ollama, etc.) and handles streaming tool invocations with smart filtering to prevent unsafe operations. Beyond basic MCP functionality, it supports Agent Client Protocol for Zed integration and includes session-based project management with automatic repo guidance loading. You'd reach for this when you want an AI coding assistant that can actually modify files in your codebase rather than just chat about code, with the flexibility to run as a standalone GUI, terminal tool, or integrated into MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop.
