agentic-cli-coder

An open-source, powerful, and versatile coding agent for your terminal. agentic-cli-coder is designed to be your primary AI assistant for software development, providing a rich set of tools and features to accelerate your workflow right from the command line.

IMPORTANT:
Before installing, make sure the directory containing the agentic package (and its subfolders) is in your PATH environment variable.
This is required for the agentic command to work after installation.

🚀 Installation

agentic-cli-coder is available on PyPI.

1. Install the package:

   pip install agentic-cli-coder

   > /config
   

   This will open an interactive menu where you can select your provider (e.g., openai), enter your model name (e.g., gpt-4-turbo), and add your API key.

3. Start coding! Once configured, you can start interacting with the agent.

   > Please write a Python script to list all files in the current directory.
