caigode 0.1.1

Local coding agent CLI.

caigode

caigode is a local coding-agent CLI with:

• stateful chat sessions
• file and command tools (list_dir, read_file, write_file, run_command)
• local state/review artifacts under .caigode/
• CI + tag-based GitHub Release + PyPI publish workflow

Requirements

• Python >=3.11
• uv (recommended) or pip

Install

Option A: uv sync

uv sync --dev

Option B: editable install

uv pip install -e .

Then run with either:

uv run caigode --help

or after activating virtualenv:

caigode --help

Configuration

Required environment variables:

• OPENAI_MODEL
• OPENAI_BASE_URL
• OPENAI_API_KEY

Optional:

• OPENAI_TIMEOUT_SECONDS (default 120)
• CAIGODE_WORKSPACE (default current directory)
• CAIGODE_STATE_DIR (default .caigode)

Example:

export OPENAI_MODEL="gpt-5.4"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api.openai.com/v1"
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
export OPENAI_TIMEOUT_SECONDS="120"

You can also pass these by CLI arguments:

• --model
• --base-url
• --api-key
• --timeout-seconds

Usage

Chat (stateful)

caigode chat

Chat keeps appending messages in-memory for the current process. Each turn is persisted to .caigode/sessions/<session_id>.jsonl.

Run one-shot task

caigode run "update README based on current project"

Status

caigode status

Review artifact

caigode review

Tooling Behavior

Available tools:

• list_dir(path=".", recursive=false, max_entries=200)
• read_file(path, offset?, limit?, start_line?, end_line?)
• write_file(path, content)
• run_command(command)

Notes:

• read_file supports both byte-like slicing (offset/limit) and line-window slicing (start_line/end_line).
• tool outputs are trimmed before returning to the model to reduce context growth.

Persistence Model

Session files are append-only JSONL:

• .caigode/sessions/<session_id>.jsonl

Each line stores the latest session snapshot (result/error/messages/etc). status and review read the latest entry per session.

Tests

uv run pytest -q

CI / Release / PyPI

This repo includes:

• .github/workflows/ci.yml
  • runs tests on push/PR (Python 3.11/3.12)
• .github/workflows/release.yml
  • triggers on v* tags
  • builds sdist + wheel
  • publishes GitHub Release
  • publishes to PyPI via Trusted Publisher (id-token: write)

One-time PyPI setup

1. Create the project on PyPI (name: caigode if available).
2. In PyPI, configure Trusted Publisher for this GitHub repo and workflow.
3. Push a version tag:

git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0

That tag will trigger both GitHub Release and PyPI publish.
