🚀 Kilo Code

Open-source VS Code AI agent. We frequently merge features from open-source projects, such as Roo Code and Cline, while building our own vision.

  • ✨ Generate code from natural language
  • ✅ Checks its own work
  • 🧪 Run terminal commands
  • 🌐 Automate the browser
  • 🤖 Latest AI models
  • 🎁 API keys optional
  • 💡 Get $20 in bonus credits when you top-up for the first time Credits can be used with 400+ models like Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude 4 Sonnet & Opus, and GPT-5

Key Features

  • Code Generation: Generate code using natural language.
  • Task Automation: Automate repetitive coding tasks.
  • Automated Refactoring: Refactor and improve existing code.
  • MCP Server Marketplace: Easily find, and use MCP servers to extend the agent capabilities.
  • Multi Mode: Plan with Architect, Code with Coder, and Debug with Debugger, and make your own custom modes.

How to get started with Kilo Code

  1. Install the Kilo Code extension from the VS Code Marketplace.
  2. Create your account to access 400+ cutting-edge AI models including Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude 4 Sonnet & Opus, and GPT-5 – with transparent pricing that matches provider rates exactly.
  3. Start coding with AI that adapts to your workflow. Watch our quick-start guide to see Kilo Code in action:

Difference between Kilo Code, Roo Code and Cline

Kilo Code started as a fork of Roo Code, which itself is a fork of Cline. We frequently merge features from these open-source projects and contribute improvements back. Built on these foundations, Kilo Code is independently developed with our own vision for AI coding agents.

  • No need to fiddle with API keys, Kilo Code ships with the latest AI models plugged in, including Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude 4 Sonnet & Opus, and GPT-5
  • MCP Server Marketplace: Easily find, and use MCP servers to extend the agent capabilities.
  • Autocomplete (experimental)

Kilo Code is a direct fork from Roo Code, and also includes the following features from Cline (and our own features):

  • System notifications: Get notified when the agent is done with a task.
  • Easy model connection: batteries included.
  • Editing previous messages
  • Assisted commit messages: we write git commit messages for you based on what changed

Extension Development

For details on building and developing the extension, see DEVELOPMENT.md
