Mini-Kode

An educational AI coding assistant project that helps you understand and hack modern AI coding assistant systems.

🌟 Why Mini-Kode?

Demo

Mini-Kode is an educational project designed to help developers understand modern Coding Agent architecture. We strike the perfect balance between overly complex open-source projects and simplistic demo examples, offering a complete yet manageable implementation (14K lines of production code) with:

  • 📚 Education-First Design - Clean architecture built on OpenAI SDK with thoughtful type design and comprehensive comments
  • 🛠️ Complete Tool System - Unified interface with comprehensive tools for file operations, search, and command execution
  • 🔌 MCP Integration - Connect to external MCP servers for extended functionality
  • ⚙️ Multi-LLM Support - Compatible with OpenAI APIs, including GLM, DeepSeek, and other mainstream models
  • 🤖 Agent Loop - Complete LLM workflow with streaming responses and human-in-the-loop permission approval
  • 🎨 Modern UI - React/Ink-based terminal interface with theme support

🚀 Quick Start (Install & Use)

Install Globally

npm install -g mini-kode

Set Up API Key

DeepSeek (tested and verified):

export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="your-deepseek-api-key"

Or use GLM (智谱AI) (tested and verified):

export GLM_API_KEY="your-glm-api-key"

Or use OpenAI compatible API:

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key"# or
MINIKODE_API_KEY="your-api-key"
MINIKODE_BASE_URL="https://your-api-provider.com/v1"
MINIKODE_MODEL="your-model-name"

Run Mini-Kode

# Interactive mode (launch UI)
mini-kode
# Non-interactive mode (direct execution)
mini-kode "help me fix the bug in auth.ts"

🔧 Development Quick Start

Prerequisites

  • Bun
  • pnpm

Install Dependencies

pnpm install

Development Commands

# Development mode with file watching
pnpm run dev
# Build
pnpm run build
# Test
pnpm run test

📖 Learning Resources

Want to dive deeper into the system architecture? Check out docs/README.md for complete system documentation and architecture explanations.

📚 Project Analysis

For a comprehensive code analysis and walkthrough, visit Mini-Kode Deep Analysis - an in-depth exploration of the codebase architecture, design patterns, and implementation details.

🧠 Project Memory

Mini-Kode automatically uses AGENTS.md file in your project root to provide context-aware assistance:

  • Automatic Context: System reads AGENTS.md to understand your project
  • Customizable: Edit AGENTS.md to include project-specific information
  • Persistent Memory: Maintains project context across sessions

🛠️ Tech Stack

  • TypeScript - Static type checking
  • pnpm - Package management
  • Ink - React terminal UI
  • OpenAI SDK - LLM integration (supports DeepSeek/OpenAI/compatible APIs)
  • Vitest - Testing framework
  • Zod - Runtime type validation
  • Commander - CLI framework

🚧 Future Plans

  1. Session Persistence and Resume - Save and restore agent sessions
  2. LLM Built-in Tool Integration - Support for LLM's native tool capabilities (note: DeepSeek currently doesn't support web search tools)
  3. Image Input Support - Process and analyze image inputs
  4. Sub Agents Functionality - Hierarchical agent delegation
  5. Reasoning Model Support - Integration with reasoning-focused models
  6. Tool Call Message Streaming - Real-time streaming of tool execution
  7. Context Caching - Smart caching of conversation context to reduce token usage

  • 🎨 Modern UI - React/Ink-based terminal interface with theme support
🚀 Quick Start (Install & Use)
Install Globally
npm install -g mini-kode
Set Up API Key
DeepSeek (tested and verified):
export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="your-deepseek-api-key"
Or use GLM (智谱AI) (tested and verified):
export GLM_API_KEY="your-glm-api-key"
Or use OpenAI compatible API:
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key"# or
MINIKODE_API_KEY="your-api-key"
MINIKODE_BASE_URL="https://your-api-provider.com/v1"
MINIKODE_MODEL="your-model-name"
Run Mini-Kode
# Interactive mode (launch UI)
mini-kode
# Non-interactive mode (direct execution)
mini-kode "help me fix the bug in auth.ts"
🔧 Development Quick Start

📚 Project Analysis
For a comprehensive code analysis and walkthrough, visit Mini-Kode Deep Analysis - an in-depth exploration of the codebase architecture, design patterns, and implementation details.
🧠 Project Memory
Mini-Kode automatically uses AGENTS.md file in your project root to provide context-aware assistance:
  • Automatic Context: System reads AGENTS.md to understand your project
  • Customizable: Edit AGENTS.md to include project-specific information
  • Persistent Memory: Maintains project context across sessions

🛠️ Tech Stack
  • TypeScript - Static type checking
  • pnpm - Package management

  • OpenAI SDK - LLM integration (supports DeepSeek/OpenAI/compatible APIs)
  • Vitest - Testing framework
  • Zod - Runtime type validation
  • Commander - CLI framework
🚧 Future Plans
  1. Session Persistence and Resume - Save and restore agent sessions
  2. LLM Built-in Tool Integration - Support for LLM's native tool capabilities (note: DeepSeek currently doesn't support web search tools)
  3. Image Input Support - Process and analyze image inputs
  4. Sub Agents Functionality - Hierarchical agent delegation
  5. Reasoning Model Support - Integration with reasoning-focused models
  6. Tool Call Message Streaming - Real-time streaming of tool execution
  7. Context Caching - Smart caching of conversation context to reduce token usage

Mini-Kode
An educational AI coding assistant project that helps you understand and hack modern AI coding assistant systems.
🌟 Why Mini-Kode?
Demo
Mini-Kode is an educational project designed to help developers understand modern Coding Agent architecture. We strike the perfect balance between overly complex open-source projects and simplistic demo examples, offering a complete yet manageable implementation (14K lines of production code) with:
  • 📚 Education-First Design - Clean architecture built on OpenAI SDK with thoughtful type design and comprehensive comments
  • 🛠️ Complete Tool System - Unified interface with comprehensive tools for file operations, search, and command execution
  • 🔌 MCP Integration - Connect to external MCP servers for extended functionality
  • ⚙️ Multi-LLM Support - Compatible with OpenAI APIs, including GLM, DeepSeek, and other mainstream models
  • 🤖 Agent Loop - Complete LLM workflow with streaming responses and human-in-the-loop permission approval
