Frequently asked questions

Aistatine @code is an on-device AI coding agent that installs locally on your machine. It helps you write, debug, and refactor code while keeping the workflow on your device rather than sending repository content to a hosted AI service.

@code is designed for local inference: its public installer provisions the local atcode-server engine, and the app downloads the model to your machine on first launch. Evaluate its fit against your own privacy and deployment requirements.

No. Because everything runs locally, your code never reaches our servers. We have no access to your prompts, your codebase, or your outputs — so there is nothing to train on.

A 1-million-token context window means @code can read and reason over your entire codebase at once — not just one file. It understands cross-file dependencies, architecture patterns, and subtle bugs that smaller-context tools miss.

Slash commands are built-in shortcuts in @code. Type / to see them. For example, /share [on|off] mirrors the session to another device, /build [on|off] toggles web-app build mode, /knowledge manages the local knowledge graph, and /effort re-enables automatic effort routing and warms up the model.

No. Once the model is downloaded on first run, Aistatine works fully offline. You can code on a plane, in a secure facility, or anywhere without internet access.

There are no per-token API costs. Once installed, @code runs inference locally using your own hardware. You pay nothing for each prompt or code generation — run it as much as you need.

Aistatine @code supports macOS, Linux, and Windows. Install with a single terminal command on any platform and be up and running in minutes.

On macOS, Linux, or WSL, open your terminal and run:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aslam-anees/at-code/src/install/install.sh | bash

On Windows PowerShell, run:

Invoke-RestMethod https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aslam-anees/at-code/src/install/install.ps1 | Invoke-Expression

Then run @code on macOS/Linux/WSL, or atcode in PowerShell. The aliases @ and at are also installed where the shell permits them.

The public installation guide documents 8 GB RAM as the minimum and about 4.8 GB free disk space. Supported systems are macOS 12+, Windows 10+ 64-bit, and a modern Linux distribution on ARM64 or x86-64. On first launch, @code downloads its model components under generic names in ~/.atcode/model.

The public installation guide states that @code can work offline after the initial binary and model download. For an air-gapped environment, obtain, validate, and stage the installer, binary, and model files through your organization’s approved software process before disconnecting the machine. Aistatine does not currently publish a separate air-gap deployment guide.

@code is designed to run the model and coding workflow locally on the device where it is installed. That means repository files and prompts remain in that environment during local inference. Your organization remains responsible for device storage, backups, source control, endpoint security, and any tools or commands it chooses to run alongside @code.

Aistatine does not currently publish enterprise license terms, centralized audit-log behavior, or an enterprise administration guide. Do not assume those capabilities are available. Contact the team with your deployment and compliance requirements so they can be evaluated against the current product.

The public documentation does not yet publish a supported-language or framework matrix. Evaluate @code with a representative repository, your normal test suite, formatter, and static-analysis tools before adopting it for a production stack. Aistatine will publish a compatibility matrix when it is documented and tested.
