Kolega Code (kolega-code) is an open-source Python-based terminal coding agent developed by the Kolega AI team. It is built to assist software engineers with repository-level code inspection, refactoring, planning, and task execution directly from the command line. In daily operations, Kolega Code acts as an interactive CLI agent guided by dedicated planning routines and task management tools. It supports multiple LLM providers (including Anthropic Claude and DeepSeek models) and connects to external capabilities via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The agent manages worktree environments, tracks goal lists, clarifies ambiguous tasks via interactive planning prompts, and executes structured changes against local files. A core differentiator of Kolega Code is its strict ToolExtension contract. Every native extension—including task lists, worktree controls, and custom skills—alongside external MCP servers must declare explicit model-visible descriptions and JSON schemas prior to execution, ensuring robust tool calling and preventing malformed tool invocations across different model backends. Kolega Code is distributed as open-source software on GitHub and includes built-in benchmarking harnesses and automated test suites to measure agent accuracy across tasks.
