vtcode

VT Code is a Rust-based semantic coding agent that operates natively in the terminal, providing developers and operations teams with an interactive environment for writing, debugging, and maintaining code. The agent supports 21+ LLM providers including Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama, and LM Studio, with a default Xiaomi MiMo V2.5 Pro model offering 1M-token context. It integrates with version control systems and build tools through a rich tooling ecosystem that includes safe file operations, ripgrep search, code intelligence, and project indexing. VT Code emphasizes security with restricted shell sandboxing, tool guardrails, subprocess isolation, and comprehensive audit logging. The platform is extensible through Agent Skills, MCP protocol support, Zed ACP integration, and lifecycle hooks, enabling developers to create custom workflows and subagents for long-running autonomous tasks.

1. Open your terminal and navigate to your project directory. 2. Activate VT Code by typing 'vtcode' and pressing Enter. 3. Share your code snippet and describe your goal using the prompt template. 4. Review the suggested improvements and ask follow-up questions if needed. 5. Copy the optimized code and test it in your environment. 6. For better results, provide as much context as possible, including the programming language, specific goal, and any error messages you're encountering.
