Mint AI Agent lives in

Original: I built an AI Agent that lives directly in your CLI and Desktop

Short summary

Mint is an AI desktop assistant and CLI agent that eliminates tedious copy-pasting between your IDE and ChatGPT/Claude by autonomously reading files, searching code, fixing bugs, and applying patches—all with explicit user approval. Supports cloud models (Claude, Gemini, GPT-4o) and local alternatives (Ollama, LM Studio) for privacy, plus screen vision, real-time translation, and MCP extensibility.

  • •Unified AI agent for coding: eliminates copy-paste between IDE and ChatGPT/Claude
  • •Autonomous with safety gates: reads files, searches code, applies patches with user approval
  • •Multi-model support: cloud (Claude, Gemini, GPT-4o) + local (Ollama) with screen vision and MCP extensibility

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
