myco

A minimalist coding agent that works across your machines over SSH.

Run myco on your laptop. It edits files, runs shells, and searches code on the local machine and on remotes you configure — one session, many hosts.

Why use it?

  • One agent, many machines. Point tools at local or a named remote (devbox, GPU box, CI host). Remotes attach over SSH on demand; you stay in a single conversation.
  • Real computer use. Bash (including multi-turn sessions), a surgical file editor, text-mode browsing, and indexed search (keyword + semantic) on each host.
  • Sessions you can resume. Titles, scratchpads, PR/worktree links, and full conversation history live under ~/.myco/ — pick up later with /resume.
  • Sub-agents for long work. Spin off focused agents so the main thread stays small and cheap.
  • Skills and project guidance stay searchable. Hosts auto-index skill packs and AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md so the agent can find how you work.
  • Coming later: multiplayer (multiple humans in the same agent workspace).

Requirements

  • API credentials for the model backend you pick (see below)
  • Rust / cargo (stable)
  • Network on first build — build.rs uses hf-hub to fetch MiniLM safetensors into the shared Hugging Face cache
  • Extra binaries on PATH
    • Required: ssh, lynx (web-browser), uv, bash
    • Recommended: git, gh, curl

Optional: trunk + wasm32-unknown-unknown only if you build crates/myco-gui.

Setup

From crates.io:

cargo install myco

Use

[!IMPORTANT]

Before you get started, you need to configure LLM API keys.

# Interactive agent CLI (default model: grok-4.5-build)
myco

LLM API credentials

myco loads a .env from the current directory (via dotenvy) and also reads the process environment. Defaults: model grok-4.5-build (xAI / OpenAI Responses API). Pass --model <id> for Claude models.

Anthropic Messages (Claude: claude-haiku-4-5, claude-sonnet-4-6, claude-opus-4-8, claude-fable-5, …):

Variable Role
ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY Bearer token (required)
ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL API base (default https://api.anthropic.com)

xAI / OpenAI Responses (default model grok-4.5-build; also any gateway that speaks the Responses API at {base}/responses):

Variable Role
XAI_API_KEY or OPENAI_API_KEY Bearer token (required)
XAI_API_BASE_URL or OPENAI_BASE_URL Base URL (default https://api.x.ai/v1)

If neither xAI/OpenAI key is set, the OpenAI Responses backend also accepts ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN / ANTHROPIC_API_KEY as a fallback token source.

(Optional) Remote Hosts Config

If you want to use myco with one or more remote hosts, you can configure this in ~/.myco/config.toml.

# ~/.myco/config.toml

enable_subagent = true

# Per-remote connect timeout in seconds on first tool use.
attach_timeout_secs = 10

[[remote_hosts]]
name = "tsnl-desktop"
ssh = "tsnl-desktop.yellow-submarine.ts.net"

[[remote_hosts]]
name = "gpu"
ssh = "ubuntu@ec2-12-34-56-78.compute-1.amazonaws.com"

Develop

cargo test --locked --lib
cargo run --locked --bin myco

Optional local pre-commit (same bar as CI: cargo fmt --check + cargo clippy -D warnings):

bash scripts/install-pre-commit-hooks.sh

Bypass once with git commit --no-verify.

NOTE: Semantic search embeds all-MiniLM-L6-v2 via Candle (no ONNX Runtime) at compile time. build.rs downloads via hf-hub into the shared Hub cache (~/.cache/huggingface / HF_HOME), stages under OUT_DIR, and bakes weights into the binary — nothing large is in git. Worktrees reuse the same cache.

# optional offline seed (usually unnecessary after one successful build)
bash scripts/seed-minilm-weights.sh
# or: export MYCO_EMBED_CACHE=/path/to/flat-dir-with-the-three-files
