Ante

Ante is a terminal coding agent from Antigma Labs that ships as one self-contained Rust binary with no runtime dependencies. It works in roughly the shape of Claude Code or Codex but is not tied to a single vendor: point it at more than a dozen providers with your own key or subscription, or run it entirely offline against a local GGUF model through the bundled llama.cpp engine. Developers who want an agent they can verify, run in bulk and carry anywhere are the target, and the tooling follows from that, with headless runs for scripts and CI, a server mode for editor plugins, and a Slack or Discord bot gateway alongside the interactive terminal UI.

The project publishes continuous Terminal-Bench runs and resource comparisons, pinning the exact build behind each number so results can be checked independently. It is currently an alpha preview for macOS and Linux. Docs, protocol, SDK and eval pipeline sit in the repository under Apache 2.0, while the core harness still ships only as a prebuilt binary.
