Everything You Need to Move Fast

AXIOM Agent CLI comes packed with powerful tools that make it the most capable autonomous coding agent in your terminal.

🧠

Truly Autonomous

AXIOM doesn't just suggest — it acts. It reads your files, writes code, runs terminal commands, and iterates until the job is done.

📁

Full File System Access

Read, write, create, and delete files across your entire project. AXIOM understands your codebase holistically.

Terminal Native

Runs shell commands, installs packages, executes scripts, and reads output — all within a single seamless workflow.

🔍

Smart Code Search

Grep, glob, and search across your codebase with precision. AXIOM finds exactly what it needs to make the right changes.

🔄

Self-Correcting

AXIOM verifies its own work. If a test fails or a build breaks, it reads the error and fixes it automatically.

🌐

Web-Aware

Can fetch documentation, read API specs, and pull in context from the web to solve problems that require up-to-date knowledge.

🔄 How It Works

From Prompt to Production

AXIOM handles the full loop — no copy-pasting, no switching tabs, no manual intervention required.

01

You Give a Task

Simply run `axiom-agent` in your terminal to open the interactive REPL, then type your task in plain English — no special syntax required.

terminal
$ axiom-agent
axiom> add dark mode to my React app
02

AXIOM Explores

The agent reads your project files, understands the structure, and plans the best approach before writing a single line of code.

terminal
📁 Reading: src/app/globals.css
📁 Reading: tailwind.config.ts
🧠 Planning changes...
03

It Executes

AXIOM writes and edits files, runs commands, installs dependencies, and makes all the changes needed to complete your task.

terminal
✏️  Editing: globals.css
✏️  Editing: layout.tsx
🔧 Running: npm run build
04

Verifies & Delivers

It checks its own work — running tests, verifying builds, and fixing any issues — then reports back with a clean summary.

terminal
✅ Build passed
✅ 8 tests passed
🎉 Dark mode added!
