ally-agent

Desktop AI coding assistant that reads, edits, and searches local projects through conversation.

Desktopfreeglobal

Ally is a free, open-source desktop AI coding assistant for Windows, macOS, and Linux that reads, edits, and searches local project files through conversation, showing bounded visual diffs for review. It supports OpenAI, Anthropic, and compatible model providers with per-workspace model selection, MCP connections, and parallel sub-agent delegation for larger tasks. It's built for developers who want a GUI desktop coding assistant they bring their own API keys to, rather than a terminal-only or single-provider tool.
