Kilo Code
by Kilo Code, Inc.
Overview
Open-source agentic coding platform for VS Code, JetBrains, CLI, Slack, and cloud agents.
Details
Kilo Code is described by its official website and documentation as an open-source agentic coding platform for VS Code, JetBrains, CLI, Slack, and cloud agents. The getting-started documentation describes it as an AI coding assistant for IDE, terminal, browser, and mobile workflows that can generate code, automate reviews, and debug issues. The docs also describe modes for coding, architecture, debugging, and review, with platform-specific documentation for VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and CLI-based terminal workflows.
When to Use
Use Kilo Code when you want an open-source AI coding assistant across IDE terminal browser or mobile workflows. Use it for agent-assisted software work such as code generation architecture help debugging and automated code review. Use the CLI documentation when you want an AI coding agent for terminal workflows. Use the VS Code or JetBrains docs when evaluating Kilo Code for those IDE environments.
