Rizz is the lightest, most connectable coding agent harness — a CLI agent loop, minimal by default with power on demand. Start with the Quickstart, or jump to a section.
Introduction
Rizz is the lightest, most connectable coding agent harness — a CLI agent loop that's minimal by default with power on demand.
Quickstart
Install Rizz from source today (Homebrew tap planned for v1), launch the TUI, and connect a model provider.
Core concepts
The Rizz loop, the reliability guarantees built into it, and the two run modes — Simple and Workspace.
Model providers
Rizz is provider-agnostic: use a subscription, bring your own key, or cloud creds across a curated catalog. Credentials live in the OS keychain.
Commands & keys
The Rizz command palette and keyboard shortcuts, with the build status of each command.
Workspace mode
Workspace mode (planned): opt-in parallel git-worktree agents, shared memory, and a per-branch greploop merge gate. Power summoned, not shipped.
Themes
Built-in Rizz themes hot-swap with no restart. A theme defines only the token palette and a few glyphs; layout is theme-independent.
States you'll see
The interface states in Rizz — empty, loading, offline, rate-limited, auth-expired, and bad-edit — and which are shipped vs planned.
Run modes
One Rizz binary, four run modes: interactive TUI, print/JSON, RPC, and SDK.
Contributing
Rizz dogfoods the discipline it ships: a worktree-per-task dev loop, strict TypeScript, a footprint budget, and greploop to 5/5 before merge.
Status & roadmap
Where Rizz is today (M2 walking skeleton) and the milestone path to v1, when the core flips to MIT.
