PicoCode

What it does

A compact, local-first terminal workbench for coding agents. PicoCode combines session workflows, model switching, image attachments, search/edit/command loops, and a lightweight TUI designed for hands-on coding.

A small, local-first coding agent workbench for the terminal. - shijizhi/picocode

PicoCode is a small, local-first coding agent workbench for the terminal. It is inspired by Pi, Codex, Claude Code, and OpenCode, but keeps the implementation focused on a local-first Rust TUI. PicoCode is an early learning project. It is useful, but still unstable and evolving. PicoCode borrows ideas from Pi and OpenCode, but it is still much smaller in scope. curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shijizhi/picocode/main/install | bash From GitHub Releases Download the archive for your platform from the Releases page, unpack it, and let the installer place picocode on your PATH .

  Tmux-IDE, OSS agent-first terminal IDEMar 2026 · tmux.thijsverreck.com · ▲88

  Hey HN, Small OSS project that i created for myself and want to share with the community. It's a declarative, scriptable, terminal-based IDE focussed on agentic engineering. That's a lot of jargon, but essentially its a multi-agent IDE that you start in your terminal. Why is that relevant? Thanks to tmux and SSH, it means that you have a really simple and efficient way to create your own always-on coding setup. Boot into your IDE through ssh, give a prompt to claude and close off your machine. In tmux-ide claude will keep working. The tool is intentionally really lightweight, because I think…

  Gigacode – Use OpenCode's UI with Claude Code/Codex/AmpFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲27

  Gigacode is an experimental, just-for-fun project that makes OpenCode's TUI + web + SDK work with Claude Code, Codex, and Amp. It's not a fork of OpenCode. Instead, it implements the OpenCode protocol and just runs `opencode attach` to the server that converts API calls to the underlying agents. We build this to scratch our itch of being able to rapidly switch between coding agents based on the task at hand. For example, we find that: - Claude Code is the best executor & fast iterator - Codex (high) is the best for complex or long-running tasks - OpenCode for fine-tuned, do-exactly-as-I-say…

  PicoFlow – a tiny DSL-style Python library for LLM agent workflowsJan 2026 · ▲11

  Hi HN, I’m experimenting with a small Python library called PicoFlow for building LLM agent workflows using a lightweight DSL. I’ve been using tools like LangChain and CrewAI, and wanted to explore a simpler, more function-oriented way to compose agent logic, closer to normal Python control flow and async functions. PicoFlow focuses on: - composing async functions with operators - minimal core and few concepts to learn - explicit data flow through a shared context - easy embedding into existing services A typical flow looks like: flow = plan >> retrieve >> answer await flow(ctx) Patterns…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
