Gitlawb Zero is an MIT-licensed terminal coding agent that answers to you — your model, your machine, your rules. Published as npm package @gitlawb/zero, it gives developers durable local sessions with full model choice and a decentralized git network.
What Makes Zero Different
Zero is built around the principle that you should own your coding agent completely. It runs locally, stores session data on your machine, and supports any model provider you choose.
Model Freedom — Bring OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Mistral, xAI, Qwen, Kimi, GitHub Models, Ollama, LM Studio, or any OpenAI-/Anthropic-compatible endpoint. No lock-in.
Durable Sessions — Sessions persist locally. Close the terminal, come back tomorrow, and your agent remembers the context. This is powered by a local session store that keeps conversation history and working state between runs.
Decentralized Git Network — gitlawb is building a decentralized git network where AI agents and developers share workflows, generate apps, publish code, and open PRs on a peer-to-peer infrastructure. This is a fundamentally different approach from platform-bound agents.

Zero vs Other Agents
Zero is closest to Kilo in philosophy — prioritizing simplicity and user ownership over framework complexity. But it adds durable sessions and the broader gitlawb decentralized network, making it more ambitious in scope. For teams that value model freedom and local control above all, Zero is compelling.
Unlike agents tied to a specific platform or CI/CD system, Zero works everywhere and answers to no one but you.
