Rift

A flicker-free terminal coding agent built in Rust for local models: Ollama's native API and OpenAI-compatible servers are first-class targets, cloud providers are optional, and it ships as one ~14MB binary.

Highlights

  • Benchmarked against opencode on a 50-task suite: more tasks solved (44 vs 42), 57% fewer prompt tokens, and 3.4x faster, with wire-measured tokens.
  • One ~14MB binary with no Node or Python; installs via Homebrew, a curl script, PowerShell, scoop, or cargo.
  • Speaks Ollama's native /api/chat protocol rather than the OpenAI-compat shim, with textual-tool-call recovery and hallucinated-tool-name aliasing.
  • Addresses context blowout with explicit num_ctx, silent-truncation detection, token-capped tool outputs, and two-stage compaction.
  • WarpDrive runs parallel agent exploration in isolated git worktrees with side-by-side diff merge; a VS Code extension ships in vscode/.

Quickstart

bash
brew tap exYze/tap && brew install rift
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/exYze/rift/master/install.sh | sh

Watch out

Copy reviewed against the repository README on 2026-10-15; the README documents no Jev or TypeSafe integration, so this entry reflects the directory listing attribution rather than a documented connection. Benchmark figures are the project's own comparisons against opencode, detailed in docs/BENCHMARKS.md.
