Nadar Code — AI skill for Claude Code

⬡ Nadar Code

Your personal autonomous AI coding agent — one brain, two front-ends (CLI & Desktop).

Nadar Code is an advanced, fully local AI coding assistant powered by your own OpenRouter API keys. It lives inside your computer, reads your codebase, executes terminal commands, searches the web, and writes code autonomously.

No subscriptions. No telemetry. Switch between models instantly.

🌟 Key Features

• Actual Execution: Unlike normal chatbots, Nadar Code can read, write, and edit your files directly, and run terminal commands to test its changes.
• Three Modes:
  • Plan: The AI researches your codebase using read-only tools and outputs a step-by-step execution plan.
  • Manual: The AI asks for your approval before writing any code or executing any commands.
  • Auto: The AI operates fully autonomously until the task is complete.
• Slash Commands: Control the AI with powerful commands like /goal (run autonomously indefinitely), /research (perform extensive web research), and /plan.
• Key Rotation: Built-in support for rotating through multiple API keys to avoid rate limits, perfect for free-tier OpenRouter models.
• MCP Support: Extend the agent's capabilities with Model Context Protocol plugins.
• Web Research Native: Built-in tools (search_web, fetch_url) for the AI to dynamically look up documentation and research papers during a chat.
• Persistent Memory: The desktop app seamlessly saves your chat history per-folder, so the AI never forgets your past context.

🚀 Quick Start Tutorial

Prerequisites

• Node.js ≥ 18.17
• Your OpenRouter API keys in ~/.nadar-code/keys.txt (one per line). Never commit this file to GitHub!

1. Installation

Clone the repository and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/Nadarisgetae/nadar-code.git
cd nadar-code
npm install

Since Nadar Code uses a monorepo structure, build the core brain first:

npm run build --pre
