Grinta – Local-first coding agent, 7 months solo, open source today

SMRTR summary

Grinta is a local-first, provider-agnostic CLI coding agent that plans, executes, validates, and completes tasks — all in a ~1.4 MB install. It supports 17 LSP servers, DAP debugging, live cost tracking, and works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Ollama, and more. Unlike Aider or Claude Code, it avoids vendor lock-in while offering strong safety rails and durable long sessions.
