Sweet CLI
A terminal-native AI coding agent. Reads your codebase, edits files, runs commands, and writes tests — same workflow as Claude Code at a fraction of the cost.
What is Sweet?
Sweet is a CLI tool that runs AI-powered engineering tasks directly in your terminal. You give it a goal — fix a bug, add a feature, write tests, refactor a module — and it plans and executes the work against your actual codebase.
- Reads your repo first — navigates project structure and relevant files before touching anything.
- Edits, runs, verifies — writes code, runs commands, and checks its own output.
- Interrupt anytime — hit Ctrl-C to redirect, add context, or review progress mid-run.
- Simple subscription — Pro at $20/month or Max at $200/month. Cancel anytime.
