Neko Core
Một chú mèo trong terminal — chỉ muốn meo meo, và làm việc.
Neko Core is a local-first terminal agent for coding and computer work. It combines a provider-agnostic agent loop, durable sessions, governed tools, skills, MCP, browser control, and an Ink terminal UI in one standalone binary. The shipped CLI is written in TypeScript, compiled with Bun, and does not require Bun on the user's machine.

Stable 1.x line. Public CLI, configuration, durable-session, SDK, ACP, authority, and rollback contracts follow the stability and support policy. See the current release for install and upgrade notes.
Why Neko
- A real agent harness. Streaming complete - tool calls - observe loop, concurrent safe reads,
context relief, compaction, loop recovery, verification debt, and bounded closed-loop continuation. Explicit closed loops fix an observable completion contract before implementation and use an independent validator.
- Local-first and provider-agnostic. Use hosted APIs, supported subscription accounts, or an
OpenAI-compatible local server. Models and endpoints are config, not product forks.
- Governed action. Read tools are safe; edits, shell, browser, Office, and host-computer actions pass
through one permission boundary. Catastrophic commands and credential targets remain hard refusals.
- Durable work. Sessions checkpoint messages, tool calls, results, provider continuation data, model,
profile, and mode. Resume after an interrupt or process restart without silently replaying mutations.
- Terminal-native UX. Fullscreen transcript, live Markdown, smooth scrolling, mouse selection, clickable
pickers, multiline input, image paste, completion alerts, and clean terminal restoration on exit.
- Extensible everywhere. Built-in skills ship inside the binary and work from every folder;
~/.neko-core/skills adds global overrides. MCP, recipes, memory, workflows, and ACP extend the same core.
