Kilo Code
Open-source autonomous coding agent for VS Code, JetBrains, and the terminal
About
Kilo Code is an open-source AI coding agent that lives in your editor or terminal and can plan, write, edit, and debug code across a whole project. It works with 500+ models from providers like Anthropic, OpenAI, and OpenRouter, and uses dedicated modes for asking questions, planning, coding, and debugging. It is best for developers who want an autonomous agent inside their existing IDE without being locked into one model provider.
