Neo by Amp

Neo transforms the Amp command-line interface, integrating advanced features for modern developer workflows. Key features include: • Remote control and real-time thread management • Automatic context compaction for extended sessions • Enhanced message queuing and steering • Robust Plugin API for custom tools and commands • Significant performance boosts for large threads This rebuilt CLI empowers developers with greater control and efficiency. It allows you to start a development thread and monitor its progress directly from ampcode.com, enabling real-time updates and the ability to send messages, manage queues, or even cancel ongoing operations remotely. The underlying architecture is designed for future scaling, supporting longer-running coding processes and seamless interaction. A standout capability is the automatic context management. Neo eliminates the need for manual context tracking by summarizing and compacting threads as the context window approaches its limit. This ensures your development sessions can continue uninterrupted, adapting to the capabilities of frontier models and simplifying complex interactions. Developers no longer need to manually manage context percentages or perform laborious information extraction. Furthermore, the new Plugin API opens up extensive customization possibilities. Developers can create plugins to handle events, register custom tools for their agents, add commands to the palette, and display tailored UI elements. This extensibility allows the tool to seamlessly integrate into diverse development environments, catering to specific project needs and enhancing overall productivity for engineering teams and individual developers.
