Newt-Agent
Newt is an experimental agentic coder in Rust, built for local models first.
Hosted providers are also available through newt setup.
The operator grants each tool call a capability: what it may read, write,
run, and reach on the network. The operator can narrow that grant before a run
and audit it after. agent-bridle
enforces it, in the kernel where the OS allows.
Confinement has a cost, so we measure it rather than describe it. We score each model on a fixed Terminal-Bench task set, with the grant enforced and without, and no release may lower a score: Terminal-Bench scoreboard.
Install
git clone https://github.com/Gilamonster-Foundation/newt-agent
cd newt-agent
just install
newt
The first run opens a setup wizard. newt --help is the authority on what the
binary does; this file is not.
