Kilo Code
Open-source AI coding agent for IDEs, CLI, cloud, and mobile, with model choice, code generation, debugging, and automation.

In inglese
Kilo Code helps developers write, refactor, debug, review, and ship software through an AI agent. It works across VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, CLI, cloud agents, Slack, and mobile, with support for hosted, local, and user-provided models.
Individuals can use the platform for free, but AI inference and cloud compute may cost extra. Teams and Enterprise add collaboration, governance, security, and support features. Kilo Code does not include inference credits with its Teams or Enterprise plans.
Features
- Code generation, refactoring, debugging, and codebase analysis
- Architect, Code, and Debug agent modes
- Auto Model routing with Efficient, Frontier, and Free tiers
- Hosted inference through Kilo Gateway with no markup
- Bring your own provider keys or run local models
- Cloud agents, isolated worktrees, and code review workflows
- Open-source MIT-licensed agent with visible prompts and context
- Browser automation, multi-agent messaging, and GitHub review integration
Use cases
- Generate and refactor application code inside an IDE
- Plan complex features before implementation
- Debug errors and trace issues across a codebase
- Run parallel agents in isolated worktrees
- Review pull requests and address reviewer or CI feedback
- Launch or monitor coding agents from a phone
