openvibe — agentic coding environment

Everything you need

Agentic AI

Reads, writes, edits files and runs commands autonomously. Web search, style learning, auto project context.

Any model

OpenAI, Groq, DeepSeek, Gemini, Ollama, OpenRouter — any OpenAI-compatible endpoint works.

MCP Support

Connect external tools via Model Context Protocol — GitHub, databases, browsers, and more.

Project Templates

Scaffold full projects with /new — React, Next.js, Express, Flask, Electron, Telegram Bot, Vue 3.

Monaco editor

VS Code engine. File tabs, breadcrumbs, autosave, resizable panel, 230+ file icons.

Integrated terminal

Real PowerShell/bash PTY with multiple tabs. Works simultaneously with the editor.

Markdown + LaTeX

AI responses render full Markdown and math formulas with KaTeX. Diff view for edits.

Project Snapshots

One-click zip backup. Excludes node_modules and .git. Download anytime from any project.

Multi-project

Unlimited projects with isolated sessions, terminal, editor state. Per-project persistence.

Web Search

AI can search the internet for current information, docs, and solutions when needed.

Light & Dark themes

Switch the entire IDE between dark and a clean grey-white light palette. Editor and terminal follow along.

Customizable UI

Square or round project avatars, compact or expanded composer. Tune the workspace to your taste.

Real-time editor sync

See AI edits live without reopening files. Drag code references straight from the editor into chat.

vibe/ project rules

Drop Markdown rules into vibe/ or .vibe/ — auto-loaded as mandatory instructions with five-layer enforcement so the model can't ignore them.

Sound notifications

Discreet audio cues when the AI finishes a response or generation is stopped.

Localized in 6 languages

Full IDE translation: English, Русский, Español, Deutsch, Français, 中文.

Plan mode (two models)

A heavy planner produces a structured plan with Done-criteria; a fast executor implements each step with full plan context. The app switches models automatically per phase.

Skills

Send #skills with .md/.txt attachments to teach long-lived per-project knowledge. Toggle each skill on or off in the Skills panel.

FAQ

Is openvibe free?

Yes, completely. Open source under MIT license. No subscriptions, no telemetry.

Which AI models are supported?

Any model accessible through an OpenAI-compatible API. This includes OpenAI, Anthropic (via proxy), Google Gemini, DeepSeek, Groq, Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM, and hundreds of models on OpenRouter.

Does it work offline?

Yes — if you run a local model through Ollama or LM Studio. The app itself doesn't require internet; only the AI provider does.

Is my code sent to external servers?

Only to the AI provider you configure. openvibe doesn't collect any data. If you use a local model, nothing leaves your machine.

Can I use it for commercial projects?

Yes. MIT license means you can use it for anything — personal, commercial, enterprise.

How is this different from Cursor or Claude Code?

openvibe is fully open source, model-agnostic (bring any provider), and runs as a standalone desktop app. No vendor lock-in, no monthly fees for the IDE itself.
