I built OpenHarness , an open-source terminal coding agent that works with any LLM: Ollama (free, local), OpenAI, Anthropic, Deepseek, Qwen or any OpenAI-compatible API.
Install and run:
npm install -g @zhijiewang/openharness
oh # auto-detect local model
oh --model ollama/qwen2.5:7b # specific model
What it does:
- 17 tools (file read/edit/write, bash, grep, glob, web search, task management, notebooks)
- 16 slash commands (/diff, /undo, /commit, /cost, /compact, /plan, /review...)
- Git integration: every AI edit auto-committed, /undo reverts instantly
- Headless mode for CI/CD: oh run "fix the tests" --json
- Permission gates: ask/trust/deny modes so the agent can't rm -rf without approval
- React+Ink terminal UI with markdown rendering and shimmer spinner

openharness is ready to collborate
Everyone is welcome to join and build it together.
