Intro

Let's discover auto-code in less than 5 minutes.

Installation and Setup

You will need an Anthropic or OpenAI API key to use this tool. They should be exported as environment variables. For example

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-api-key"
export ANTROPIC_API_KEY="your-api-key"

Then you can run the tool via npx:

npx @autocode2/cli@latest --help

For brevity, I recommend adding an alias to your shell profile:

alias ac2="npx @autocode2/cli@latest"

Then you can run the tool via ac2. The following examples will assume you have done this.

Get started by creating a new app. We'll use a simple remix app starter, but you can of course start anything you like.

npx create-remix@latest --template jacob-ebey/remix-shadcn
cd your-app-name
npm run dev

ac2 code:run --include "src/**/*.{ts,tsx}" -m sonnet "Replace this initial starter app with a simple todo app"

All being well, you should see some output from the LLM and it should have edited the files in your project.

You can continue the conversation with the LLM by using the -c (or --continue) flag, or for an interactive chat use the code:chat command.

ac2 code:chat -c -m sonnet
