Aider is an Apache 2.0 open-source coding assistant for developers who work in a terminal and keep their projects in Git. It can help start a project or make changes to an existing codebase. You can use local LLMs or connect to cloud models from providers including Anthropic, DeepSeek and OpenAI.
Aider maps the codebase to give the model context in larger projects. It works with languages including Python, JavaScript, Rust and Go, as well as HTML and CSS. When it changes code, it can create Git commits with messages, so you can inspect diffs and undo edits with familiar Git tools. It also works inside editors: comments in the code can serve as requests for changes.
Images, screenshots and web pages can provide context for a task. You can also speak a request for a feature, test or fix. After making changes, Aider can run your linters and tests and address problems they report. For people who access an LLM through a browser chat interface, it supports a copy-and-paste workflow for exchanging code context and edits.

Code Buddy is an AI coding assistant for developers who want a terminal agent running on their own machine, with a choice of local or cloud models. It reads repositories, edits code and runs commands on Linux, macOS and Windows. Ollama keeps model inference local without an API key or account; cloud providers send model requests off the machine. Routing includes automatic provider failover.
Codex CLI is an open source coding assistant that runs on your computer and works with local repositories. It's for developers who want to explore code, make changes, and use their existing development tools from the terminal. It runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux under the Apache 2.0 license.
gptme is a self-hosted AI agent that works directly in your terminal, with access to your files and installed tools. It's for developers who want a coding assistant in their own environment, and people who want an agent for data analysis or other knowledge work. The software is free under the MIT license and doesn't require a gptme account.
Open Interpreter is a terminal coding assistant built around open-weight models, with model-specific behavior for Kimi, Qwen and DeepSeek. It's a fork of OpenAI's Codex for developers who want to choose their model provider while keeping a familiar agent interface. The project uses the Apache 2.0 license.
Qwen Code is an Apache 2.0 licensed AI coding agent for developers who want help working through a codebase, changing code and checking the result. It runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, with a terminal interface and a desktop app. It builds on Google Gemini CLI and has developed into an agent that can use Qwen models alongside other model providers.
