Why LyneCode Stands Out

Terminal first

Works with any language and any project folder. No registration, no IDE lock‑in.

Free to use

If your provider offers free credits (e.g., Gemini), Lynecode stays free.

Built‑in version safety

Automatic backups before changes so you can explore freely and recover when needed.

Attach context

Attach files and folders inline. Navigate, and keep attachments visible as you chat.

Your data stays local

No tracking or data sharing. Your code and history remain on your machine.

Built in India

Proudly crafted in India for developers everywhere.

Quick start

Pick the one that fits how you use your terminal:

Option A • You are already inside the project folder

lynecode

Option B • Running from anywhere, just point Lynecode at a folder

lynecode "D:/projects/myrepo"

FAQ

Is Lynecode free to use?⌄

Yes. Lynecode is completely free and open-source. If you have free credits, your cost is zero.

How does AI-powered code generation work?⌄

Lynecode uses advanced AI models to understand your project context, generate code, review changes, and assist with debugging. It indexes your entire project for intelligent suggestions.

Do I need git for safety?⌄

No. Lynecode takes local safety snapshots before AI-generated changes so you can view diffs and restore even without git. Perfect for AI-assisted development.

Which AI models can I use?⌄

OpenAI (GPT-4.1/5), Google Gemini (Gemini 2.5/Pro), and Azure OpenAI. Switch between AI models at runtime for optimal performance.

Is Lynecode open-source?⌄

Yes! Lynecode is fully open-source, allowing the developer community to contribute and customize this Indian AI coding assistant.

Common AI coding issues & fixes⌄
  • Terminal colors not showing? Lynecode falls back to plain text automatically.
  • Verify API keys; placeholders are detected and blocked with helpful messages.
  • Re-run with a specific folder if needed: lynecode "D:/projects/myrepo"
  • AI not understanding context? Attach relevant files using /file: commands
How do I attach files or folders?⌄

Inside your message, add /file:<name_or_term> or /folder:<name_or_term>. Lynecode keeps attachments visible after responses for continuous AI context.

Can I switch AI models on the fly?⌄

Yes. Use /model to configure or /switch <model_name> to change AI models instantly during development.
