README
Project Overview
jcode is a RAM-efficient AI coding agent harness optimized for multi-session workflows. It uses significantly less RAM than similar tools (such as Claude Code and Codex CLI) — with 10 active sessions, it uses only about 1/20 of the RAM used by Claude Code. Startup time is extremely fast, with a time-to-first-frame of approximately 14ms, dozens of times faster than other tools.
Key Features
- Exceptional RAM efficiency: ~27.8MB for 1 active session, ~117MB for 10 active sessions
- Blazing fast startup: ~14ms time-to-first-frame
- Supports macOS, Linux, and Windows 11
Target Audience
- Developers who need to run multiple AI coding agent sessions simultaneously
- Users working with AI coding tools on resource-constrained devices
- Developers who追求极致 performance and resource efficiency
Quick Start
- macOS/Linux:
curl -fsSL https://jcode.sh/install | bash - Windows 11:
irm https://jcode.sh/install.ps1 | iex
Core Advantages
- Exceptional RAM efficiency, especially in multi-session scenarios
- Blazing fast startup speed
- Official website at jcode.sh and documentation at jcode.sh/docs
System Requirements
