gdmcode 0.1.24

gdm: AI coding agent for professional developers

gdm — Open-Source AI Coding Agent

A terminal-native coding agent that reads your codebase, reasons over it, and edits files autonomously — with configurable autonomy, local model support, and a full audit trail.

---

⚡ Quick start (30 seconds)

pipx install gdm-code
gdm version
gdm health
cd my-project && gdm "fix the login bug"

See docs/quick-start.md for a step-by-step walkthrough.

Why gdm?

• Local-model support — run fully air-gapped with Ollama or vLLM; no data leaves your machine.
• Autonomy slider — five levels from "ask everything" to "fully autonomous"; start low, build trust.
• Open source and auditable — MIT licensed, hash-chained audit log, team policy enforcement.

Installation

Recommended (isolated environment):

pipx install gdm-code

pip:

pip install gdm-code

Development install:

git clone https://github.com/GedeonMatabaro/gdmcode
cd gdmcode
pip install -e ".[dev]"
gdm health

Note: The PyPI package is gdm-code. The command is gdm.

---

Configuration

gdm uses a 7-layer precedence system (highest wins):

CLI flags > env vars (GDM_*) > team policy > team preferences
         > project .gdm/config.toml > user ~/.config/gdm/config.toml > defaults

Quick setup:

gdm login grok        # or: gemini | codex | all

Secrets are stored in the OS keychain — never in TOML files.

Full configuration reference: docs/configuration.md

---

Enterprise

gdm includes audit and governance features suitable for team deployment:

• Audit log — every tool call is logged with a hash chain for tamper detection.
• Team policy — .gdm/team.toml enforces autonomy caps, network allowlists, and git permissions.
• RBAC — planned (enterprise-003).

See docs/security-hardening.md for deployment guidance.

---

Architecture

gdm runs a tool-calling agent loop: the model receives a task, selects tools from a registered registry, executes them (subject to injection checks, RBAC, and network policy), and writes the results back into context. Sessions are checkpointed to SQLite; memory is indexed for whole-codebase reasoning.
