Agent runs can feel like a black box when context, model choice, token use, and cost are hidden from the developer.
experimental v0.2.0
PatchPilot
Local-first coding-agent TUI with observable runs.
A provider-aware terminal interface for guided patching, visible telemetry, and local or cloud model workflows without losing the repo context.
I built an Ink-based TUI around guided patching, provider metadata, transcript panes, and local/cloud model switching.
The run becomes easier to understand while the repository context stays close.
For developers who want coding-agent runs to stay visible, local-aware, and easier to control.
