Key Features	Gigacode orchestration: parallel, pipelined, looped, judged, and synthesized multi-agent workflows Specialized sub-agents: planning, building/coder, investigation, general, and browser agents Repo tools: read, search, create files, apply edits, inspect changes/diffs	Seven breakable boxes covering OWASP Agentic Top-10 vulnerabilities Three guided simulations for cascading failures, human-agent trust, and rogue agents Network-isolated Docker containers for safe execution	Code-to-runtime reasoning across cloud, Git, and Kubernetes Action-gate enforces read-only policy on every API call Sandboxed JavaScript execution for concurrent research	Append-only, SHA-256-addressed event history through Jaybase AES-256-GCM encryption for stored node payloads Unified RBAC for ledger, notes, snapshots, and audit reads
Pros	Multi-agent orchestration for broad tasks far beyond single-agent capabilities Local-first with all data stored on your machine, enhancing privacy and security	Covers full OWASP Agentic Top-10 in a realistic manner Docker isolation prevents accidental damage	Read-only by construction prevents accidental writes Evidence-backed verification cross-checks every finding	Opinionated and secure accounting CLI with immutable audit trail Designed for AI agent integration with JSON output
Cons	Requires Python 3.11+ and a terminal that supports a modern TUI No graphical interface, limited to terminal use	Requires Docker and technical setup Not for production use; only for lab environments	Requires an LLM API key, incurring token costs Limited to read-only operations, cannot remediate	Pre-1.0, limited feature set No native QuickBooks import (agents must normalize data)
Best For	Developers and software engineers working on large codebases Teams needing automated code review and migration assistance	Security researchers focusing on AI agent vulnerabilities Developers building MCP-based applications	Security engineers DevOps teams	Small teams needing secure, auditable accounting with AI agent support Developers integrating automated bookkeeping workflows

How to use Kolega Code?

1. 1Install using the provided script (curl -fsSL https://kolega.dev/install-kolega-code.sh | sh) or via uv/pip (uv tool install kolega-code). Then start a session in your project with 'kolega-code .' and complete the first-run wizard to connect a model (API key or ChatGPT sign-in). Use the TUI for interactive development or 'kolega-code ask' for one-shot queries. Enable Gigacode with '/gigacode on' for broad tasks requiring parallel sub-agents.

Kolega Code Key Features

• Gigacode orchestration: parallel, pipelined, looped, judged, and synthesized multi-agent workflows
• Specialized sub-agents: planning, building/coder, investigation, general, and browser agents
• Repo tools: read, search, create files, apply edits, inspect changes/diffs
• Terminal execution: run shell commands with streamed output and permission controls
• Plan/build workflow: read-only Plan mode for investigation, then Build mode for implementation
• Web search and browsing: DuckDuckGo default, or Firecrawl, Tavily, SearXNG; Playwright-powered browser agent
• MCP server support: connect streamable_http, sse, and stdio MCP servers as tools
• Model routing: assign different models to different roles and override per agent role
• Interactive or scriptable: Textual TUI, queued prompts, one-shot commands, session management
• Extensibility: custom skills, prompt overrides, lifecycle hooks, project permission rules
• Local-first state: all sessions, settings, and credentials stored on your machine

Kolega Code Use Cases

• Large codebase audits and reviews by fanning out sub-agents per package or directory
• Sweeping migrations and cross-file refactoring with parallel implementation tasks
• Adversarial code reviews where one agent writes and another reviews
• Implementation plans decomposed into independent pieces executed simultaneously
• Interactive coding assistance with web search and browser automation for research
