Aider

Aider is an open-source, Git-native pair programmer: it maps the repo, proposes commits, and works with any model via BYOK or OpenRouter.

Cline

Cline is an open-source VS Code agent that plans, edits, and runs tools with BYOK models and approval controls.

OpenHands

OpenHands (formerly OpenDevin) is an open-source software engineering agent you can self-host, using LiteLLM or OpenRouter for models.

LiteLLM

LiteLLM is a self-hostable proxy that normalizes hundreds of LLM APIs behind an OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

Model Context Protocol

Model Context Protocol is an open protocol for connecting agents and IDEs to tools and data sources through MCP servers.

Continue

Continue was an open-source IDE assistant for chat, edit, and agent workflows; Cursor acqui-hired the team in June 2026 and the standalone product was wound down.

Instinct

Instinct is a self-learning memory MCP server for coding agents — it observes repeated patterns, scores them by confidence, and promotes mature ones into suggestions it exports back to Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, and CLAUDE.md.

Agent Network Protocol

Agent Network Protocol (ANP) is an open spec for a decentralized web of agents — DID-based identity, capability description, and peer-to-peer agent messaging without a central directory.

NOTES

Field notes

Aider

Surgical, Git-first edits on a local repo with your own API keys.

Caveat — Releases continued through v0.86.x (Aug 2026) but cadence has slowed and users have opened issues asking about maintenance status — check activity before adopting.

Cline

Cost- and control-sensitive teams that want an open-source agent inside VS Code.

Caveat — Free extension; you pay inference at provider rates. ClinePass is an optional low-cost subscription for open coding models.

OpenCode

Leading OSS terminal agent; cheapest path to open coding models.

OpenHands

Self-hosted autonomous SWE agent, with a hosted Cloud option for teams.

Caveat — Cloud has a free Individual tier and a $20/mo subscription; organization tiers are quote-based.

LiteLLM

Teams that want a gateway they operate themselves; used under OpenHands and many agent stacks.

Caveat — Enterprise licence is quote-based and priced by gateway scale, not per token; SSO is free up to 5 users.

Model Context Protocol

The common tool-bridge layer across most entries in this catalog.

Caveat — The 2026-07-28 revision is the largest since launch and introduces a 12-month deprecation policy; check server/client compatibility.

Continue

Historical reference. The extension still runs on your own keys, but there is no roadmap or hosted service.

Caveat — Retired. Final release v2.0.0 shipped June 19, 2026; Cline, Cursor, or Kiro are the usual landing spots.

Instinct

Stopping your agent from making the same mistake twice — memory that compounds across sessions.

Caveat — Early, small community project; promoted patterns are heuristic — review auto-applied rules before trusting them.

Agent Network Protocol

Experiments in decentralized agent networks where no central directory or vendor should sit in the middle.

Caveat — Research-grade adoption: smaller ecosystem and fewer production deployments than A2A.
