auto-dev
🧙AutoDev: the Multi-Agent coding development platform built on Kotlin Multiplatform.
AutoDev (Xiuper edition) is an AI-native multi-agent development platform built on Kotlin Multiplatform that provides specialized coding agents for software development workflows. It includes core agents for document research, coding assistance, code review, database queries, and artifact generation, deployable across IntelliJ IDEA, VS Code, CLI, desktop, mobile, and web environments. The platform features a unified runtime that enables developers to leverage AI-powered sub-agents for tasks like error recovery, SQL optimization, codebase investigation, and domain analysis. Built on a shared Kotlin Multiplatform core, it supports multiple LLM providers and integrates with MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools for extensible agent capabilities.
Key Features
Use Cases
- 01Automating code review workflows with pull request analysis, linter integration, and automated fix generation
- 02Generating domain dictionaries and architectural documentation from existing codebases for better AI context
- 03Building data visualization and statistical charts from natural language descriptions using PlotDSL agent
- 04Performing natural-language database queries with schema-aware SQL generation and automatic query optimization
- 05Creating self-contained artifacts (HTML, React, Node.js, Python, SVG, Mermaid) for rapid prototyping
- 06Investigating legacy codebases to identify patterns, dependencies, and architectural issues automatically

auto-dev — FAQ
What is AutoDev and what does it do?+
AutoDev is a multi-agent AI development platform that provides specialized agents for coding, code review, database queries, document research, and artifact generation. Built on Kotlin Multiplatform, it runs across IntelliJ IDEA, VS Code, CLI, desktop, mobile, and web environments with support for multiple LLM providers.
How do I install the AutoDev AI sub-agent?+
Installation varies by platform: for IntelliJ IDEA, install from the JetBrains Marketplace; for VS Code, download from Visual Studio Marketplace; for CLI, run npm install -g @xiuper/cli; for web, visit web.xiuper.com; and for desktop/Android, download from GitHub Releases. iOS requires building from source.
Which AI clients and IDEs work with AutoDev?+
AutoDev integrates directly into IntelliJ IDEA as a plugin and VS Code as an extension. It also provides standalone applications for desktop (JVM), Android, iOS, web browsers (JS/WASM), and command-line interfaces, rather than requiring a separate AI client.
What API keys or prerequisites does AutoDev require?+
AutoDev requires API keys for your chosen LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Ollama, or others). The platform includes UI for configuring model settings and tool integrations, and it automatically discovers AGENTS.md files from your project hierarchy for project-specific rules.
Is AutoDev free to use?+
AutoDev is open-source software distributed under the MPL 2.0 license, making it free to use and modify. However, you will need to provide your own API keys for LLM providers, which may have associated costs depending on the provider and usage.
What are sub-agents in AutoDev?+
Sub-agents are specialized micro-agents that handle focused tasks like error recovery, SQL optimization, chart generation, and codebase analysis. The main CodingAgent orchestrates these sub-agents following an 'agent as tool' architecture pattern, decomposing complex work into modular, composable workflows.
How do I install auto-dev?+
Open the source repository on GitHub and follow its README. auto-dev is a agent — MCP Agents Market links you directly to the official repo.
Is auto-dev free?+
auto-dev is an open-source project hosted on GitHub. Check the repository for its license and any usage requirements.
