AI coding agent CLI for your terminal and CI

Pipe in the problem and get back a fix that passed its tests

Copying errors into a chat loses the context. Pipe a failing log into boldcreate and it reads the code, fixes it, and runs the tests. In a pipeline it reviews every branch and answers with an exit code.

Use CLI results in a CI step

Sign in with an organization key, run a prompt with --mode json, and branch on the result. Exit 3 holds the build until a person approves in BoldCreate.

# .github/workflows/review.yml- run: npm ci && npm run build- run: boldcreate login --api-key $BC_ORG_KEY- run: | boldcreate -p "review this branch" \ --mode json --model auto \ --no-session > review.json echo "exit $?"

--model auto

Select models to suit each review job

CI runs hundreds of times a day. With Auto, routine reads and checks go to a fast, low-cost model and only real findings get the strong one. Pin a model with --model when a job needs it.

Each bar shows one day of CLI reviews on Auto
Four machines, one policy

Check shared rules from any CLI session

Laptop, CI runner, build server over SSH, or a teammate’s terminal: boldcreate status shows the same skills, approval policy, and budget, because none of it lives on the machine.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the AI coding agent CLI?
On macOS, run curl -fsSL https://downloads.boldcreate.ai/cli/install.sh | bash. On Windows, run irm https://downloads.boldcreate.ai/cli/install.ps1 | iex in PowerShell. Then run boldcreate in any folder to start an interactive session where you plan, edit, and test together, with every command shown first.
What modes does the CLI support?
Run boldcreate to work alongside it, boldcreate -p to ask once and exit, or boldcreate -c to continue the last session in a folder with its context and approved plan. Pipe logs, diffs, or stack traces straight in with -p -.
How does the CLI work in a CI pipeline?
Sign in with an organization key, run a prompt with --mode json, and branch on the result. Exit 0 means passed, 1 failed, 2 a usage error, and 3 holds the build until a person approves in BoldCreate.
Will frequent reviews get expensive?
Auto keeps routine reads and checks on a fast, low-cost model and saves the strong one for real findings. Pin a model with --model when a job needs it.
Where do the CLI’s rules and budgets live?
In your organization, not in a dotfile. On a laptop, a CI runner, a build server over SSH, or a teammate’s terminal, boldcreate status shows the same skills, approval policy, and budget.
Which Git hosts does BoldCreate work with?
BoldCreate works with repositories hosted on GitHub, GitLab, and Gitea.
