What it does

VEXI is an open-source AI coding agent built for developers who prefer the terminal. Bring your own API keys, connect OpenAI, Anthropic, and other providers, and accelerate coding, debugging, refactoring, and automation through a lightweight, multilingual, privacy-friendly CLI.

Vexi is an open-source AI coding agent that lives in your terminal. Bring your own key, any provider, zero config, 100% local.

Vexi reads your project, edits your files, and remembers your decisions. Bring your own key from any provider. No signup, no server, no cost. npm install -g vexi-cli and you're running. Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux. No config files. Auto-detects your provider from the key. Groq, Gemini, Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter. Stored locally only. Context Compression Engine keeps a running summary of your decisions. No more re-explaining your project. Scans your entire codebase, not just the open file. Respects .gitignore, skips node_modules. Export any session as an interactive HTML you can share. Watch the AI build, step by step. The first AI tool that explains any code in Arabic, Spanish,…from vexi.pro

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
