Nanocode-CLI

The tool runs entirely in your terminal, talks to whatever LLM you point it at — local or remote — and edits files using line-and-hash anchors that reject a write if the target code has already drifted. That last detail matters more than it sounds: most agents will cheerfully overwrite a file that changed between the read and the write. nanocode refuses. The tradeoff is scope — the codebase is intentionally small, the feature surface is narrow, and teams who need a visual canvas, IDE integration, or a rich plugin ecosystem will hit the ceiling fast. For a restricted environment or a developer who wants to read every line of the agent loop before trusting it, that ceiling is the point.
