Volt is an open-source workspace where agents do the typing and you keep the judgment. Chats, code, Git, a browser, and a terminal share one window, so nothing you need is a tab away.
Agent + IDE.
Volt integrates the agent and the IDE into one. Highly inspired by Cursor, Volt is an open-source agentic development environment.

01 ChatsEvery chat and workspace in one sidebar.

02 ToolsFiles, terminal, browser, and Git a click away.
The whole loop,
without the tab-switching.
Models, Git, terminal, and background agents live in the same window as your chats, so every step from idea to pushed commit stays in one place.
Each turn and each subagent lists the files it changed, with the lines it added and removed. Open one to review just its work.
Switch between Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, or a local model mid-conversation. Tune effort, context, and speed per chat.
Volt stages, writes the commit message, and pushes. You review.
Agent edits land as diffs. Keep or undo them hunk by hunk.
Each task gets its own worktree, so runs never step on each other.
Schedule agents to triage issues, bump deps, or write the changelog.
Powered by VS Code.
Volt is built on the open-source VS Code core. The editor, extensions, and muscle memory you rely on come along; the agent layer is what's new.
- Extensions
Install from Open VSX, or side-load any .vsix.
- Themes & icons
Every color theme and icon pack you already use.
- Keybindings
Your shortcuts, settings, and snippets carry over.
- Language tooling
Language servers, debuggers, and tasks just work.
Everything an agent needs.
Mentions, a follow-up queue, and a live context meter are built into the composer, so every chat stays on track.
@-mention anything
Pull files into the conversation with @, with a code preview before you send.
Queue the next step
Type your follow-up while the agent works. It runs as soon as the current turn ends.
See the context
A live meter shows how much of the model's context each chat is using, before it runs out.
Bring your own subscription.
Or any model you like.
Volt doesn't sell tokens. Plug in Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Grok, Antigravity, or Kimi Code with the sign-in you already have. Volt runs them; you keep your plan.
