Acode runs CLI coding agents in its Alpine Linux terminal. Use Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, all on your phone. Edit AI-generated code in a real editor with syntax highlighting.
AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode can edit files and run commands. To use them on Android, you need a terminal and access to your project files.
A text editor alone cannot run a CLI coding agent. You also need a shell, package manager, and the dependencies required by your chosen tool.
Acode provides a Linux terminal and code editor on Android, letting you run AI agents and review the files they change.
Acode's built-in Alpine Linux terminal provides an environment for running Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode alongside your files.
Three AI agents, one app: Install Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), and OpenCode (open-source) side by side. Use the best tool for each task without switching environments.
Acode isn't just an AI terminal. It's a complete editor. AI agents generate code in the terminal. You view, edit, and enhance it in a professional editor with syntax highlighting for 100+ languages. Use Git, npm, and SSH in the same workspace.
And because Acode is open source and free, there's no subscription on top of your AI API costs. Pay only for the AI services you use. Your development environment is yours.
Install Acode: Download from Google Play or F-Droid. Free.
Set Up Terminal: Tap the terminal icon. Alpine Linux installs automatically.
Install Node.js: apk add nodejs npm git
Install AI Agents: Choose one: Claude Code (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code), Codex, or OpenCode. Follow each tool's setup guide.
Start AI Coding: Run your AI agent in the terminal. Open files in Acode's editor with acode ..
Anthropic's agentic AI coding tool. Edit multiple files, run commands, search codebases, and debug complex issues, all from Acode's terminal.
OpenAI's coding CLI. Generate functions, explain code, refactor files, and get AI assistance directly in your Android development workflow.
The open-source AI coding agent. Free, no API markup, supports multiple AI backends. True open-source AI development on mobile.
In-editor AI assistance via plugins: AcoPilot, Blackbox AI, ChatGPT, Cosmo AI. Get code suggestions without leaving the editor.
AI agents work alongside regular development tools. Use Git, npm, SSH, and your AI agent, all in the same Linux environment.
Acode is free. AI agents have their own costs: Claude Code requires an Anthropic API key (pay-as-you-go), Codex requires an OpenAI API key, and OpenCode is open-source (free tool, but needs an AI backend).
Yes. Install Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode all together. Switch between them based on the task. Each runs in a separate terminal tab.
Cloud-based AI (Claude, OpenAI) needs internet. If you run a local AI model in Acode's terminal (e.g., via Ollama), AI coding can work fully offline.
Acode is free, open source, and trusted by 3.6M+ developers. Get it now.
