Kilo Code: Open Source AI Coding Agent

The story

What the video said

You’re building an app and you want an AI coding tool to write the code, but you don’t know which files it will touch or what it will change.

kilocode is an open source AI coding agent that runs in VS Code, JetBrains, and your terminal. You describe a task in plain words and it plans, reads files, and edits code.

You pick a mode for the job. Code mode writes and edits, Plan mode works out the design first, and Ask mode answers questions without changing any files.

In the demo, you type a question about the project and the agent reads a file, thinks, then draws charts and a stack summary in the panel.

So kilocode gives you an open source coding agent you can run in your editor or terminal, and you stay in control of every change it makes.
