Veles

Veles is an open-source, terminal-first agent designed to understand and remember your project's context across sessions. It continuously refines its understanding, getting sharper with each interaction by distilling sessions into structured, local memory. Key features include: • Terminal-native interactive REPL • Structured, per-project memory • Provider-agnostic model support • Local-first operation • Pluggable content layouts This robust agent streamlines your workflow by eliminating the need to re-explain context. It operates without cloud sync or telemetry, ensuring your project data remains local and secure. With its ability to extract insights and rules from past interactions, Veles builds a persistent knowledge base that evolves with your project. Veles is ideal for developers, researchers, and technical writers who work extensively in the terminal and require a contextual assistant that learns over time. It supports various usage patterns, from interactive TUI conversations to one-shot CLI commands, and integrates seamlessly into diverse project structures without vendor lock-in.
