What is Codebuff?
Codebuff is an AI coding agent that runs in the terminal; you install it with npm and use it right in your project folder. It understands the whole codebase's structure, dependencies, and patterns, and makes precise edits that respect the existing structure and style. A single instruction can change the codebase broadly, and it offers modes such as Free, Max, and Plan. Users can build and modify their own agents, and it supports MCP servers, skills, and knowledge files (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md).
