Kaitoi in your terminal

Kaitoi CLI

The command-line surface for Kaitoi. Run workflows locally, create runtime recipes, automate your pipeline, and use Agent mode to build Kaitoi-powered apps with an assistant that already understands the platform.

A local control surface for hybrid work

Scriptable, recipe-aware, and connected to the whole platform.

Shell orchestration

Run nodes, graphs, projects, and repeatable workflows from scripts, CI, or an interactive terminal session.

File-aware local work

Read, edit, and generate against your project files with local context and changes you can inspect before they land.

Platform reach

Call the same models, nodes, services, and Core APIs Studio uses without rebuilding integrations for each project.

Application scaffolding

Generate Core apps and contained nodes with defined contracts, so each piece is easy to verify and hard to break.

Portable recipes

Turn model repos, scripts, and automations into reusable Kaitoi recipes that show up as runnable tools in your workflow.

Agent mode

Build apps powered by Kaitoi Core from the terminal. Agent mode helps shape the UI and user experience while Core handles the heavy lifting.

It builds in contained units, not one growing codebase.

A general coding agent builds your app as a single codebase where every feature shares the same blast radius. Kaitoi CLI builds features as nodes and recipes: each one is a contained unit with a defined contract to the rest of the graph, so it can be generated, run, and checked in isolation. With built-in Kaitoi expertise and direct access to Core, Agent mode can make Kaitoi-powered apps far faster than a general coding assistant because it is working in a structure that is harder to break.
