Emotional Research // Local-First Coding Agent
Nyx runs autonomously on your machine, routes each task to an isolated worktree, and hands back a clean, reviewable branch. Nothing auto-ships.

How it works
One worktree per task
Every task runs in its own git worktree. Parallel work never collides and rollback is a single command.
Ships only when types and tests pass
The engine gates every branch on a strict typecheck and full test run. A red tree stays local and never gets proposed for review.
Bring your own key or run on a flat subscription
Point Nyx at any model provider with an API key, or run on a flat Claude subscription. No per-token invoice surprises.
Supervised loop, self-recovering
A moderator layer monitors each worker, restarts on recoverable failures, and escalates only when it genuinely cannot continue unattended.
The CLI
# dispatch a task $ nyx "add a /health endpoint with a test" # check what the fleet is doing $ nyx status # run a multi-step project from a brief $ nyx marathon <brief>
Safety model
Nothing Nyx produces reaches your main branch without you. Every task completes as a reviewable branch. You inspect the diff, run it locally if you want, and decide to merge. Nyx does not have push access to your default branch and does not request it. The gate that ships a branch is yours to pull.
