zot is an open source automated software factory. Give it a job and its autonomous coding harness plans, edits, runs, and verifies your code until the work is complete.
Start a factory run - grab a release and give it a software brief:
zot "scaffold a tiny http server in go"Most coding tools optimize the conversation. zot optimizes the production run: one software brief goes in, then the harness plans, edits, runs, and verifies the work on its own. The agentic loop runs on a capable cloud harness. The default backend is ChatBotKit; the built-in relay backend can use your OpenAI or OpenRouter key instead. Either way, the binary stays tiny and the local code is small enough to read in one sitting.
- Brief-to-build automation - one job enters the factory and the harness runs it to completion.
- Real tools - reads, writes, and edits files and runs shell commands in your repo.
- Visible production run - watch the plan, edits, commands, and verification stream by.
- Project context - picks up
AGENT.mdand skills from your repo. - Tiny and open source - a single Go binary over an autonomous coding harness.
