Documentation

Everything you need to run Launchbit locally — from install to plugging in your own model.

Launchbit is an open-source AI coding assistant that runs on your machine. The CLI is the primary interface; editor extensions for VS Code, Zed, and Neovim wrap the same engine. Source code never leaves your environment — the only outbound network hop is the model endpoint you choose.

Quickstart

Install the CLI, run your first command, and index a repo in about two minutes.

Bring your own model

Wire up Anthropic, OpenAI, Ollama, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

What Launchbit is

A local-first pair programmer. Run launchbit ask to query your codebase in natural language, launchbit fix to apply patches with a diff preview, and launchbit review to get a second pair of eyes on a change. You bring the model; Launchbit handles indexing, retrieval, and the edit loop.

Interfaces

  • CLI — the source of truth. Everything Launchbit can do is a command.
  • Editor extensions — VS Code, Zed, and Neovim wrappers that drive the same engine.
