Deixic Code

Deixic Code is Deixic's native Rust coding agent. One native runtime owns the CLI, interactive terminal UI, headless protocol, hosted runner, and web runtime gateway. Node.js and Bun are not required to run the product. Existing maestro protocols and machine coordinates remain supported compatibility identifiers.

Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evalops/maestro/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
deixic-code --version

Opt into a preview channel when you want builds ahead of stable. Alpha tracks the newest source; beta is deliberately one source commit and one patch line behind alpha:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evalops/maestro/main/scripts/install.sh | MAESTRO_INSTALL_CHANNEL=beta bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evalops/maestro/main/scripts/install.sh | MAESTRO_INSTALL_CHANNEL=alpha bash
npm install -g @evalops/maestro@beta
npm install -g @evalops/maestro@alpha

The public repository and @evalops/maestro package remain supported compatibility coordinates during the publication migration. Both install the canonical deixic-code command and the retained maestro alias. See the compatibility matrix.

The installer verifies the release checksum manifest and Cosign signatures when the release provides them, stages binaries and web assets under a versioned data directory, and swaps only the launcher. Set MAESTRO_REQUIRE_SIGNED_INSTALL=1 to refuse legacy releases without signed metadata.

Installed interactive sessions check for updates on startup and apply newer releases before opening the TUI. The check is bounded and failures never block startup. Set MAESTRO_AUTO_UPDATE=0 to opt out, MAESTRO_AUTO_UPDATE=check to show availability without installing, or use deixic-code update --check for an explicit check. Use deixic-code update --channel beta or deixic-code update --channel alpha for a one-time channel update; channel installers persist that choice for startup checks. Signed-release installs require Cosign verification during automatic updates; global npm and Bun installs update through their original package manager.

Release assets retain the compatibility names maestro-darwin-arm64, maestro-darwin-x64, maestro-linux-arm64, and maestro-linux-x64. The npm package contains the same native binaries and POSIX launchers; it does not execute JavaScript at runtime.

Use

deixic-code                         # interactive TUI
deixic-code setup                   # check auth/config and show the next setup step
deixic-code "fix the failing test" # interactive with an initial prompt
deixic-code exec "summarize this repository"
deixic-code --headless              # NDJSON protocol over stdio
deixic-code web --port 3000         # browser UI and HTTP runtime gateway
deixic-code hosted-runner

Develop

Rust owns every agent/runtime path:

• packages/maestro-rs — compatibility-named executable and canonical command dispatch
• packages/tui-rs — agent core, providers, tools, TUI, and headless runtime
• packages/runtime-gateway-rs — HTTP/SSE/WebSocket runtime gateway

The repository contains no TypeScript source or TypeScript build toolchain. The browser UI is a versioned static asset snapshot served by the Rust runtime gateway; agent execution, protocols, adapters, CLI, and TUI are Rust.

cargo test --workspace --locked
