huggingface/tau

A Python port of Pi’s minimalist coding agent.

About the project

Tau is a small terminal coding agent that reads and edits files, runs commands, and keeps session history while showing its work. It is intended for people who want an installable coding assistant and a readable example of how such agents are built.
