What Axocoatl does

Run coding agents unattended. Agents write the code. Axocoatl writes the receipt. Claude Code, Codex or a local model in a sandbox; the host runs your checks, a different model reviews, and every run ends with a CI exit code and a signed receipt.

README

Axocoatl

**Run coding agents unattended, and let the host decide when they are done.** Agents write the code. Axocoatl writes the receipt.

Choose Claude Code, Codex, a local model or an OpenRouter model to make a change, and a different model to review it. The built-in fix loadouts run the writer in a sandbox, keep its model credential on the host, and have the host run your checks on the final files. An exit code reports the outcome; a signed receipt lets someone who did not watch verify the recorded facts and covered files offline. One open-source Rust executable; no Axocoatl account or telemetry.

In the first terminal:

curl -fsSL https://axocoatl.ai/install.sh | sh
axocoatl onboard --start none  # configure the writer, reviewer and sandbox
axocoatl doctor
axocoatl dev                   # leave this terminal running

In a second terminal, from the repository you want to change:

cd ~/src/my-app
AXO_EVIDENCE=$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/axocoatl-first-fix.XXXXXX")
# Local or OpenRouter writer; choose the corresponding external loadout otherwise.
axocoatl run fix --task "Paging skips the last item when the total is a multiple of the page size" \
  --junit "$AXO_EVIDENCE/junit.xml" --record "$AXO_EVIDENCE/run.axorecord.jsonl" \
  --receipt "$AXO_EVIDENCE/receipt.json"
axocoatl receipt verify "$AXO_EVIDENCE/receipt.json" \
  --key "$(axocoatl receipt key)" --repo . \
  --record "$AXO_EVIDENCE/run.axorecord.jsonl" --require-pass
