CodeAlta
CodeAlta is a terminal workspace for agentic coding. It brings model-provider setup, project navigation, prompt attachments, threaded sessions, delegated work, and trusted local plugins behind the alta command.
CodeAlta is pre-release software. Configuration, screenshots, and extension APIs may change before 1.0.
🚀 Install
Install .NET 10, then install the CodeAlta global tool:
dotnet tool install -g CodeAlta<br>alta
Update an existing installation with:
dotnet tool update -g CodeAlta
On first launch, CodeAlta creates ~/.alta/config.toml. If no provider is enabled yet, the Model Providers dialog opens so you can configure Codex, Copilot, OpenAI-compatible APIs, Anthropic, Gemini/Vertex, or custom endpoints.
✨ What it gives you
Keyboard-first terminal workspace : tabs, prompt editor, project sidebar, command discovery, model selectors, context status, and inspectable timeline cards stay in one TUI.
Provider-neutral model setup : configure hosted APIs, subscription-backed Codex/Copilot, cloud providers, and compatible endpoints with the same provider workflow.
Context-aware prompts : attach files and folders with @, paste images when the selected model supports them, and inspect what context was sent.
Threaded agent sessions : keep project-scoped history, reopen sessions, queue prompts on busy threads, steer running work where supported, and compact long local-runtime conversations.
Actionable operations : model/provider tests, startup config recovery, usage details, logs, modified-file summaries, and tool input/output dialogs are built into the workspace.
Trusted local extension points : source plugins, Agent Skills-compatible skill folders, and the in-session alta live tool let you automate local workflows while keeping provenance visible.
