// local-first coding agent · v3.0.0 · MIT

Claude Code–style chat, for your models.

A coding agent that reads and edits your files, runs commands and keeps todos — on the desktop and in your terminal.

Everything lives beside the chat.

Not a textbox over a model — files, diffs, history, memory and shortcuts living in one window.

The workspace next to the conversation

Press CtrlE: browse the linked folder, open files beside the chat and watch the agent’s cursor move as it writes.

Every edit previewed, every edit backed up

Review the diff hunk by hunk, keep exactly what you want, and one /undo steps the whole batch back.

Bring your own tools

Add any stdio MCP server in Settings; its tools join the agent in build mode. One broken server never blocks a run.

Time travel for your files

/history lists every safety copy taken before a write. Restore any point — confinement and a binary guard included.

It remembers

Pin facts to memory.md with # fact, and switch on prompt playbooks with /skill.

Your hands stay on the keyboard

Thirty-plus shortcuts, a Ctrl+K palette over every command, and Esc closes whatever is open.

Pick your level of trust.

Plan asks, build shows you the diff, auto applies. Every write is backed up either way.

Advice only

The registry refuses mutating tools in plan mode. The agent reads, greps and reasons, then hands you a plan — nothing on disk changes.

One brain, two shells.

The desktop app and the codezy CLI run the same harness — same tools, same approval gate, same hooks.

the Electron window — cowork pane, diff previews, themes, images

the terminal companion — no build needed, 33 commands, vim mode

See it move.

Fifteen seconds of the app, then five close-ups — recorded straight from CODEZY on Windows.

Running in three commands.

powershell
# 1 — install and build
$ npm install
$ npm run build
$ npm run preview

Install Node.js LTS and Ollama, pull the default model qwen2.5-coder:7b, then build. Prefer the terminal? node cli/index.mjs needs no build at all.
